i thought that at first, yet two more images of meadow browns onthe same camera have a june and july timestamp

EDIT
nevermind mate, just checked some other pictures ive taken with the camera that i have a definite date on and the time stamp is all over everywhere

hi guys, looking back through my old pictures i had this one listed as meadow brown underwing, however it doesnt appear to look quite right and the date it was taken was february, surely too early for a meadow brown, any ideas?

so still clearing up my camera and found these two pictures, with butterflies i'm pretty good so can at least ask is this such a thing, however with moths i have no idea at all. http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h308/dolfanuk/SDC11046.jpg http://i67.photobucket.com/albums/h308/dolfanuk/SDC10927.jpg ...

cheers guy, i cansee what you mean, well it's a new one either way

took this photo today guys and am quite sure it's a large white, just after a bit of confirmation from you guys.

cheers roger, just checked my id book with the two that you said and gatekeeper seems like a great shout

hi guys found this pic on my SD card and was wondering what it was, first thoughts are a small tortoise shell but would like a bit of confirmation from you guys.



Cheers

Steve

hi guys i think that the first of these is a large skipper, while the second and underwing shot may be a meadow brown.

feel free to confirm, deny or ridicule at will

cheers guy, was gonna toot on my dragonfly id site, but it aint as good for visual id as on here

saw this golddragonfly yesterday, however couldn't get it to land nearer the ground for an upper shot so any help appreciated.

seen one yesterday in bickershaw near to wigan/bolton

was quite windy though so couldn't get a great shot of it

got a picture of this blue underwing. thought it was a holly blue but when i compared it it looks remarkably more like a common blue.

thoughts?

cheers dave, the little holly blue wouldn't open its wings, but when it flew away it was blue above also

two pics taken today, that need id help, i think the first is a large white, possibly female, and the second is a male holly blue.

yah that's exactly what it was doing

i think i know what you mean dave, like curling it up?

this one was also

cheers dave, i could just about tell it from a female OT, unfornutaely for this poor fella the Male OT's couldn't and repeatedly attempted to mate it :lol: i got a pic of the female GVW upper and under so quite happy bout that. turning into a good season for me, seen 7 or 8 species so far in the fie...

this butterfly was sniffing around a female GVW today and i'm not sure but i'm almost certain he's a male GVW, couldn't get a view of the underwing as i had with the female though.

any help would be appreciated, oh and i saw my first red admiral of year, he was HUGE

cheers guy just a shame those grass bits are in way lol

can anyone ID this butterfly from the under wing shot? my thoughts are small tortoise shell
