Augury Guardian - Animation Time!

Today's Animation Time features the Augury Guardian Rig.
The Augury Guardian dips forward and straightens up pulling its petals together and grouping its leaves inward. Where it holds and pulls backward, then flops forward and out. Upon flopping over, it spits, throwing its petals open and splaying its leaves outward. After opening it then recoils and reverts back to its original relaxed position.

Today's Inspiration:
Anyone who's pleased with their work will stop right there, because if you're satisfied then you don't have to improve.

The human race has so much brains and so little intelligence.
