Your chalkhills are really different from ours, almost didn't recognize it!
Lovely pattern and a great perch.
now I have to decide whether to upload as tiny skipper today or a big black and white one Smile

I'm not complaining about today's weather - glorious sunshine, hard frost and chill wind but such a pleasure to get a day such as this at last! Not only do I love the beautiful butterfly in this image, that's a gorgeous Scabious too!
