These were all taken on a forested walk around a mountain lake above Hell at the beginning of August.

One looks rather like a ringlet, but I can't find a good match for it in my book.

If anyone can name the flower in the second picture too, I'd be very grateful.

1 - Arran Brown
2 - Devil's Bit Scabious and Noctuidae (forgot the species)
3 - Geometridae? not an easy picture
 
Ooooh! Thanks Max, the Arran Brown is a Lifer, so really pleased about that!

Yeah, shame about the last one, it was a very dark part of the track unfortunately.
 
Thanks so much Aeshna.

A handsome moth that one, isn't it.
