    hi folks

    Just wondered if this was strange or not - I have never seen one before...

    There is a big plant in a neighbors garden that attracts butterflies predominately Red Admirals...

    But yesterday seen a really striking one - Black under wings - and a purply top of wing with 4 amazing eye designs on the wings. Never had the camera with me...pity.

    Know wot it is?? and is it rare??

    Cheers

    James
