Milbert's Tortoiseshell

Aglais milberti sitting on some smushed down grasses in the Pembina Valley, August 2011.

Certain areas on the farm aren't mowed so much as they're ridden over until they're squished flat. There were far more of these tortoiseshell butterflies fluttering about than there were monarchs. Don't they look like they have evil hypnotic orange eyes?
