Gatekeeper Butterfly

Just leaving to go out for a walk when I saw this in the Front Garden.

The female Gatekeeper doesn't have the brown scent marks. Both male and female can look similar to a Meadow Brown, unlike the Meadow Brown, the Gatekeeper almost always has two white "pupils" in the eyespot. From the side, if it has spots on the lower wing, they are always white (and the Meadow Brown always black spots)
