Lindo exemplar
Beautiful images Pedro, I just noticed that image number 4 has two white eye inner eyespots in the larger black one which is generally only on a gatekeeper as Meadow Browns tend to just have one like in all of your other stunning photos of this butterfly :-)
Thank you so much, Madalena. I feel honoured :)
your photo is the new image of Parque Natural de Sintra-Cascais mission, congrats! :)
So pretty!
