Chequered Skipper - Favourite Photo of 2021

Week 3

Happy Halloween and hopefully you enjoyed the extra hour :D The one good thing is that if the rest of the year passes as quickly as the last month we'll soon be in spring surrounded by butterflies! :shock: :D

Please could I ask that everyone waits until a topic has been opened by me for a particular species before posting photos as then it will be easier to keep track of things? Of course our overseas members are very welcome to fill in the obvious gaps relating to rare UK migrants. As in previous years details of locations, dates, times and circumstances would be welcome as would any accompanying stories and anecdotes or other observations of behaviour and interesting other points.

Another quick reminder that it might be a good idea to select your Overall Favourite Butterfly Photo of 2021 first so that you’ve got something to post when the series of threads culminates in 20 weeks time… :wink:

Have a goodun and stay safe

I was lucky enough to visit Glasdrum NNR, near Oban on 6th June this year. I wasn’t disappointed as the sun appeared and the chequered skippers followed.

Good stuff, Bertl. I really must get round to seeing this species again soon.
