2022-07-09 Kongelundsområdet, Denmark Imago Han SV-søen. Suddenly flew in and sat for a few minutes before it took direct flight toward the top of the trees. Despite the strong wind. |

2022-07-11 Nyttehaver Ugandavej (tårnby), Denmark Imago Poor smartphone photos but justified by the observation being rather unusual without oak trees nearby, as far as I know. The black-and-white double-streak underneath is diagnostic, however, I'm not sure about the sex since the blurred-out upperside is of too poor quality to say for sure. But overall, I would guess it is a female. |

2023-07-14 Kongelundsområdet, Denmark Imago Hun Skovfogedmarken. On the regrown cut-down Blackberry bushes that were brutally slaughtered in mid May by the cruel forest department. But who am I to complain if the butts are content... |

2023-07-18 Kongelundsområdet, Denmark Imago Fasanstien. Sugar-wine feeding with the intention to attract this species didn't pay off. I only saw two animals today and they both stayed above in the oak foliage. |
