When I first saw this, I thought Meadow Brown. But then I remembered it was smaller and the underwing patterns/colours do not match exactly. the hind wing has 'eyes'. Can anyone help with the ID please?  Click for larger image.
Thanks

Evening Peter,
What an artistically-captured photograph, encompassing views for both aesthetics and ID. Beautiful.
Take care, Jason  |
