Delaware skipper - male
Note the orange fringe on the hindwing. Also no white dusting (common on European skippers). It's bigger than the least skippers, too.

Upper wings - HW - note the black veining and the black margin is usually thicker than the European. Forewing - note the black cell end bar and black veining.

Beautiful shots again.
