Thanks, Cinders. It wouldn't oblige by opening up fully, so I had to check in my book to I.D. it. Saw lots of them in the Bluebell woods today, they flit about so quickly, not a hope of a photo! : o (

That's a new one on me...maybe they're still a bit dozy but will open up and be more lively as the weather warms up?

Thanks, Tt and Jacquie. The male bears the orange tipped wings, poor female is plain. : o ((
