Actually not too bad condition. A bit tatty at the ends of the wings.
Mostly just not a good photo. Light wasn't particularly good. I have since taken another that is better ... the sun is now out. Will add it on when I get it off the camera.
Just checked the suggested species ... the black blotches on mine are not nearly as pronounced.
