Skipper in the sun
The skippers (dikkopjes in Dutch) are still flying about; this one is taking a rest in the first sun after a few rainy days:

Olympus Stylus 1s, 200mm, ISO160, f5.6, 1/400s
A few more photos of skippers, because they are cute:

Olympus Stylus 1s, 300mm, ISO125, f5.6, 1/500s

Olympus Stylus 1s, 135mm, ISO200, f5.6, 1/250s

Olympus Stylus 1s, 300mm, ISO200, f5.6, 1/80s
Thanks for watching!
A bit too hot for fur coats, I think :)

Great shots again - is there a butterfly haven near you?
The whole region here seems to be, judging from what I hear from other places.
