HB or DG Frit?
HB or DG Frit?
Interesting visit to Arnside Knot this afternoon. Plenty of frits whizzing around. Some faded ones. Some orange ones. Some sat still. Is this one possibly a High Brown? I fear not but its worth trying.

I'm afraid not. Apart from the more subtle clues, like the wingshape and the straighter line of pd spots, this is a male and lacks the prominent high brown sex brands.

Thanks. A return trip is necessary next year then.
