More pics from my brother.
These Skippers were in the same vicinity as the undecided ones. He thinks, but he's not sure that they are the same ones.
He doesn't have an under wing shot of the frit, but other pics look like Knapweed.
He also has this frit. He said that it was very small. Any ideas?
Thank you
Denise

Hi Denise,
The fritillary is violet fritillary (Clossiana dia) and the second skipper almost certainly malvae/malvoides. I shall have a think about the first tomorrow (I always feel a little disadvantaged at this time of night - I don't know why!
