In the Cotswolds

I think this is a Large Skipper butterfly.
Miss T, (or anyone else) hoping you can tell me 😊

Miss T: thanks, I thought it must be because of how it holds its wings. Think it is a male. The Scabious was the easier bit for me as I used to grow them at work many years ago. 😊

Miss T: Looks like it’s going to feed on that little critter next to it or have they given up on social distancing and decided to dine together 😆😆

Thanks Rob. I hadn't seen one before either. Probably because they are usually zooming past at 37mph 😀

So now you both know how fast I had to run to take this picture. More fake news!
