Unidentified...

Thom Mitchell @rhoing - it's a crappy shot! Wouldn't be still long enough. No need to comment on this terrible pic. I will delete it after Thom possibly identifies the flying bug.
The wing markings look very much like a skipper. There are *lots* of species of skipper with similar markings, but blowing it up to full resolution reveals what looks to be an extended tail. Compare to this image of a Long-tailed Skipper (Urbanus proteus) https://bugguide.net/node/view/1306221
and these on 365, http://365project.org/tags/long-tailed%20skipper

@rhoing I believe you're right! Too bad I couldn't have gotten a better shot. Would've been my first! Thanks, Thom! Most grateful!

@marlboromaam My thinking: the shot is good enough (adequate if not better) if an ID can be made. :)
