Skipper/ Camera Critters

A skipper (not sure what kind) on a wild fern leaf

I think this is common banded skipper. If anyone knows for sure, I hope you'll tell me.

I haven't ever heard of a skipper, is it some kind of moth?

Gretchen said...

It's an incredible shot, but I am not a fan of bugs!

Great shot. It almost looks like he's wearing horse's hair.
