Gatekeeper
Peacock
Female Small Skipper.
The newly described Blue Skipper (oh not again, it's not April 1st!!!)
Small Copper - these make such gorgeous subjects combined with an attractive American Physaria sp.....
Green-veined Whites ensuring there will be plenty more to come.....
Plus an impressive number of Common Blues, the males living up to the part....
The underwing just as attractive.

From well marked with blue
