8" x 10" print - Gray Buckeye california_natives This original drawing is doneGray Buckeyes often patrol trails and other open areas that resemble stream beds. The large eye spots on the wings can be used to scare predators away by positioning them in such a way that they look like the eyes of a much larger creature.
