Fiery Skipper

I am often “numbed” by all the skippers—most of which always seem to be Sachems, Peck’s Skippers, and Fiery Skippers in our yard—and I just can’t keep posting skippers. I shot this guy j-u-s-t in case I got nothing better today, but now that I’m here (a month late), I realize that I’ve only posted one Fiery Skipper this year and this shot is better.
