Checkered Skipper visit ..

.. such a tiny thing
.. used to seeing many Skippers around here
.. but this one was not only smaller - the markings were different

.. out came Kaufman Field Guide to Butterflies of North America
... page 289 Common Checkered Skipper (Pyrgus communis)

I always thought these Checkered Skippers were pretty, too. But, considering I am colorblind and can only see black and white, I might be a little biased about them!

Haven't seen any that weren't interesting -- whether I knew what they were or not -- hurry in .. check Kaufman and my NC site ...
Do thank you for your visits ...
