The Meadow Argus (Junonia villida) is a low flying butterfly. It will open its wings and put its back to the sun to sunbath, but will close its wings in shade. The "eye-spot" pattern on its wings is a defence mechanism, and when it feels threatened, it will open its front wings to reveal extra "eyes".
