We prove that a bounded operator T on a separable Banach space X satisfying a strong form of the Frequent Hypercyclicity Criterion (which implies in particular that the operator is universal in the sense of Glasner and Weiss) admits frequently hypercyclic vectors with irregularly visiting orbits, i.e. vectors x ∈ X such that the set N T (x, U) = {n ≥ 1 ; T n x ∈ U } of return times of x into U under the action of T has positive lower density for every non-empty open set U ⊆ X, but there exists a non-empty open set U0 ⊆ X such that N T (x, U0) has no density.
