Silver-spotted are restricted to chalk downlands of Somerset and Southern England. You are right to question this Butterfly as it is very interesting, but if you Google Large Skipper images you will see that in a certain light the underside can show a spotty effect, particularly I think of females. I would still stick the picture (or a link to it) on this thread and see what others say: http://www.birdforum.net/forumdisplay.php?f=463. You have to sign up first but it only takes a minute. <br /><br />Good luck at Bradfield Woods- they have Dormice there! And who knows maybe that Roller will still be around when you come to Norfolk.<br /><br />Jim.Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07440756100318972524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-298901959751728642.post-36328821429709214652013-08-11T18:32:53.072+01:002013-08-11T18:32:53.072+01:00This comment has been removed by the author.Robs Birdinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18146693795613856829noreply@blogger.com
