Friendly Peacock - _TNY_7021
Sometimes when you're chasing butterflies, merely looking at them is enough to make 'em fly away. But sometimes, the opposite happens. I spotted this European peacock butterfly (Aglais io) on a rock while walking around the Havtornsudd Point on the Gålö peninsula and didn't expecti it to stay while I moved in closer - but it did.
Unfortunately the focus isn't perfectly on the eye here, but on the other hand, that shows better how very fuzzy these guys reall are.
