Yes, I think it is the same butterfly I spotted before. Sorry, but I was too tired for perusing through 3000 spottings to find the first one... Thank you one more time for your help.

Hesperiidae, Carrhenes sp. and might again be Carrhenes leada? http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/16567317 http://www.learnaboutbutterflies.com/Amazon%20-%20Carrhenes%20leada.htm http://butterfliesofamerica.com/carrhenes_leada_types.htm

Lovely spot! They look like a species of spreadwing skippers - hesperiidae

Wow, that's really cool how they're kind of mirroring each other! Looks like some type of moth.
