I tried to get a photo with the wings open but it refused to work with me. After half an hour trying and keeping up with it i settled for a closed wing photo. No idea what butterfly or moth it is.

Neighbour 4 doors down the road also told me it is a skipper in English. In Dutch they are called dikkopje which translates as thick head
