This Monk Skipper Butterfly is sipping nectar from my
Plumbago Bush. I see them on it
fairly often.
They're also very fond of these
Wild Petunias.
Usually when bugs wiggle in front of my camera it bugs me, but every so
often I get a photo like this one and I'm glad they moved.
I hadn't done much with my skipper pages yet when I got an email from
Tim Adams identifying every butterfly on my site that I hadn't looked up
yet. Wow! I'm still catching up.
I had to go out and chase skippers to get more photos so I could do a
page on each one. I'm still chasing them, but at least this Monk Skipper
was cooperative enough to pose for me.
