Why the call it owl eyes
The owl eyed moth.
Nice @mandela , I like these type of The owl eyed moth.Butterfly and moth wings can be stunningly beautiful. More importantly, some have colourful and elaborate patterns that serve as a defence against hungry predators.
There are many butterfly and moth species that have developed what appear to be extra eyes. These distinct wing markings are often referred to as eyespots, false eyes or false eyespots and come in a wide variety of colours and sizes.
Eyespots appear on both adults and larvae and are often highly distinguishable from the rest of the animals' wing patterns. The eye-catching markings are usually circular, made up of concentric rings of contrasting colours.
Patterns often evolve to help animals hide from predators, but eyespots usually increase visibility. But their conspicuousness suggests their effectiveness - the trait would unlikely have evolved so widely if it was to the detriment of the insect.
I like your butterfly very much. I am happy that there are more butterfly friends on the Steem Blockchain. With you I visit very gladly again.
Warm greetings from @faltermann
