Description
Thymelicus sylvestris on brambles on Talbot Heath
It can be distinguished as a male by the dark line on the forewing, called a sex brand.
Worth seeing fullsize.

You either have a super zoom or the critters let you get close. Beautiful pic.
beauty !!.. it certainly is their time right now
Another superb shot Andrea and a very detailed zoom.
Another beautiful Photo super close up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amazing capture Andrea. God bless.
Great in zoom! With today's confusion about sexual identity, Some sort of ''sex brand" might be useful for humans.
Fantastic shot!
Yes, worth seeing full size. Beautifully captured :)
Superb. I envy your photo opportunities so close to home. I see fewer and fewer insects every year. The only bees I see now are walking which indicates they are sick or in distress. And yet we keep ignoring the signs.
Very nice close-up Andrea. Well done.
wonderful macro, Andrea!
Another wonderful bug picture !

You are amazing Andrea and also a fantastic photographer!

You have studied extensively to be able to ID male vs female! Lovely macro!
Fantastic shot of this interesting "Orange" critter. The contrast of colors are amazing !
Superb capture!
