Description
Today we visited a large greenhouse in which many species of butterflies live. One of them is the owl butterfly. The undersides of the wings look like an owls head including a big eye. This butty is from the tropical parts of America.

Must have been a very clever butterfly too, to have landed on a cactus without impaling itself! Great shot. : )
