Large Skipper on Dorset Heath
It was only when I got home that I discovered that a nationally rare heather - Dorset Heath (Erica ciliaris) - occurred at RSPB Arne. Had I known when I was there I'd have made a point of searching it out and photographing it. Luckily when I went through my collection of shots I found this one of a large skipper feeding on its characteristic tapered flowers.
