A new butterfly

This is the first time I've seen a Long-tailed Skipper. I found it at my Mom's. I never got a chance to see it open. Maybe next time. :0)

Thank you for your nice comments on yesterday's Blue Heron! :0)

I don't share my tomatoes!

Wow - he's really neat - never seen one either. Will have to stay alert. That's a real nice shot of it. (And I agree -the skippers don't like to open their wings)
