Field Notes

Description:

A Philippine Butterfly. It is relatively small in size and has a brown and white color. It has rings of yellow and black at the outer end of its wings.

Habitat:

Philippines

Notes:

I took these photos at our backyard.

The owl butterflies I search on the net are said to be quite big, but the one I took photos of is relatively small. Is this really an owl butterfly? I got the name from the internet because of the eye-like patterns on its wings.....
