Greyling Butterfly

Greyling Butterfly - master of disguise., when they land on the ground they will keel over in the direction of the sun to reduce the impact of their shadow making them very inconspicuous.

That was some spot Trev, and a great shot allowing us to see the Greyling.

That is some amazing camouflage. It's well near invisible in the second shot.

Well done for spotting it and getting such good shots.
