Yes
Heres another from the weekend I spent in the lower French Alps (max height was 2346 m) by road.
This is a Skipper although I really am unsure of what one it is as it could be one of 3 similar ones.
Taken late afternoon when it was cooler although where this one was found it was already much cooler Between 17-21 degs I think.
Edit, this is a Safflower Skipper (Pyrgus carthami)

Very nice - but I would be inclined to crop in closer to remove the OOF bit bottom left.
