A medium sized, brown, butterfly with a wingspan of 38-55mm. The Common Bushbrown has has a Spot on its upper side and the underside will vary with season(wit/without the eye-spots ad a white line). The one in the picture has a series of eye-spots enclosed in between the white line and the wing margin. In the dry season the spots are usually not present. The male and female look almost identical when it comes to marking and colouring.
The Bushbrown inhabits almost all enviroments and is found in deciduous, semi-evergreen, to evergreen forests.
This butterfly is averagely difficult to photograph as it is very alert and flies in a very comical up-down fashion going round and round the a shrub so it is difficult to follow for long. My advice would be to capture it from a distance using a zoom lens.
