おもしろい事実

Look closely for the tiny white ring around each black 'eyespots' on their wing undersides!

Ringlets are one of the few butterflies that enjoy flying even when the sun is hiding!

Their caterpillars are super picky, eating only grass blades and helping meadows stay healthy.

They lay their eggs by simply dropping them while flying low over the perfect grassy spots!
