Shot this UFO butt which resembled a Common/Dark Posy at first sight.
At first I thought damages to its hindwings had caused the dark appearance, but a closer examination on camera LCD showed that this was not the case.
The butt remained on high perches throughout and very alert to any closer approach. In the end all I managed are distant shots affected by handshake and wing-induced blurs.
The two pics are cropped from the originals, and showed both left and right sides of the wings.
Any idea of its species ID?
