Check this site Argy Bee. Geoff Walker's goal to photograph every Australian butterfly in the wild. A terrific collection.

Cyrils brown is the only species with three eye spots on the top wing. Leuba's shot shows these very well. I've still not seen one. Nice! http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/16328216
