| | | Small or Essex?
I know Essex have black tips to antennae - does the orange at the extreme tip make it a Small?

Yes the Small Skipper does have orange on the tip, but the one I got last year had a lot of orange showing with broader tips. Perhaps a male/female difference? I'll upload my pic (no need as the link give both sexes, the female and male, mine was a male.

A Small Skipper for me- their antennae tips do vary in colour, but never show the dipped in black ink effect that Essex shows, unlike this individual. |
