    Skippers are so hard for me to even try to ID..and they never sit long.. Great catch...

    I think they are called Skippers for a reason. Maybe they should be called 'flitters'. MB

    He may not have sat long but it was long enough for a really nice shot of his fuzzy little self!

    If it did not stay still very long, then you are to be doubly congratulated that you captured it so well!

    Thanks for the photo. I've been trying to identify a butterfly. It's not this one but it's close enough that I think it's in the same family.
