| | | Skipper to ID
I took this photo at Far Ings Nature Reserve, Lincs in July 2008. I think it is a Skipper but would appreciate a more positive ID.
Thanks.

It looks like an Essex skipper to me - I think they are found in Lincolnshire. |

I agree it's a Large Skipper.
(And yes, Essex Skippers are found in Lincolnshire). |

Many thanks Duncan. I think this was my first and only sighting of a Large Skipper. So I was well pleased.
