Shadow Shot Sunday #63 Dingy Skipper



I'm a bit late with my post this week. This is a Dingy Skipper on a courgette leaf. Although it looks quite like a moth it is a butterfly. Thank you to 'Hey Harriet' for initiating and hosting this meme.

  1. This year we have more wasps than butterflies, so any butterfly is welcome! Thanks for yours!

  3. I really like the name Dingy Skipper!

    That's a cool shot! I'm sorry you were late and missed adding your link to Mr Linky. I'll include this cute little butterfly in one of the collages this Sunday though :)

  5. I agree with Tracey! Dingy Skipper is a great name! However, I have wondered what the distinctions are for moths and butterflies.

  8. Paula - I had hoped to find a simple answer to your question but so far I haven't! I shall research further (ahem!) and perhaps post my findings. (Oh dear - I thought I'd given up full-time work . . . ;-})
