What is a "wall brown"?

A wall brown is a butterfly species commonly found in Europe and Asia. It is named after its preference for habitats with stone walls, rocky areas, and dry grasslands. The wall brown butterfly has wings that display a warm orange-brown color, with intricate patterns and eye-catching eyespots near the wing margins. This species is known for its strong flight and agility, often seen fluttering low among vegetation or basking on rocks to absorb warmth from the sun. The wall brown butterfly primarily feeds on nectar from various flowering plants, contributing to pollination.
