  Thank you everyone for commenting on my photo. It does look like a big eye. I call these the Owl butterfly but I know that's not the real name.

  I'm not sure of the name of it. There's a couple of different butterflies that have this on the outside of their wings. Thanks for the comment.

  Hi Kay this is a great shot, is this a macro or a zoom or is this a crop blown up or how did you get so close?
