Field Notes

Description:

Family: Hesperidae > Subfamily: Hesperiinae > Tribe: Thymelicini. Possibly one of the cutest butterflies out there, and certainly one of the cutest skippers, I found this guy by chance as I was about to leave a raodside. For a skipper he was very amiable and approachable but that being said even this one had its limit and darted away from me.

Habitat:

Roadside
