Identification help please. Moth, skipper or something else?

Post by anneke »

Took a picture of these two creatures yesterday, but I can't seem to identify them. Can anyone help please? Both taken in Wales.

Hi,

1st Image is a Mother Shipton

2nd Image is a Burnet Companion

Moths are not my specialty (not sure what is) but that's what they look like to me.

Hi,

I'd second those ID's.

Cheers
