Sitting on Itself, Pt. 2 - _TNY_9499
This quite surprised-looking butterfly is a meadow brown (Maniola jurtina) and it is actually sitting on itself.
Now what do I mean by that? Well, the white flower is an ox-eye daisy (Leucanthemum vulgare), right?
And the German name for the butterfly is Große Ochsenauge where "Ochsenauge" in fact means, you guessed it: ox-eye!
