Took these thinking that they were Small Skipper butterflies, but asked advise from www.ukbutterflies.co.uk, where Pete informed me that they are probably Essex Skipper butterflies. :)

Was going through the butterflies to see what we had and came across your Essex Skipper Rolf. :)
Excellent captures. :thumbsup:
Haven't seen the Essex. Don't think we get them in Exmouth. I believe they have slightly different style antennae to the Large and Small species
Crumbs, that's a golden oldie Beryl.:)
I know. But I can't think why I missed it as I like the Skippers.:)
what a handsome little creature, nice pics rolf:thumbsup:
