Junonia orithya Junonia orithya – I spotted this butterfly on a beautiful day, its wings glowing in the pleasant weather. The outer wings were a soft light chocolate brown, patterned with fine woven brown lines and a slightly rough texture. Inside, the wings revealed a stunning mix of violet and light blue shades, decorated with brown circles outlined in black. Overall, the Junonia orithya is truly a beautiful butterfly, a perfect blend of subtle earth tones and striking patterns. Blue Argus,Geotagged,India,Junonia orithya Click/tap to enlarge
