Has anyone got any information on whether Chequered Skippers are being seen at any of their regular sites at present?
Thanks

First seen in Glasdrum Wood on 30th April! See:

... so I would imagine that they're just past their peak now.

Chequered Skippers - still around
Several today at Glasdrum Wood, at the little clearing at the top (Glasdrum tan spot). All looked quite fresh. Suspect the early first date was a bit of a freak occurence.
Small PBFs there as well.
