HBF or DGF? It's great when you know the jargon and can bewilder novice browsers, but this fritillary identification business is doing my head in!
I took the first two shots at Gait Barrows and the last at Foulshaw Moss. I'm pretty sure the middle shot is a dark green, but couldn't get a shot of the underwings of the other two.
Will somebody please put me out of my misery and identify them?

Silver-washed are right on the limit of their northern range at Gait Barrows. So - well done!
In terms of blondes, brunettes and red heads, I assume you're bringing moths into the equation - I must be getting old, but my immediate thought was "White Ermine", "Ruby Tiger" and "Garden Tiger"
