What a hefty thing - surprising it can fly!
I think it's a skipper of some sort - but I couldn't find it in my book - anywhere! Please help with ID.

A little bottom heavy for sure, but it looks just like the skippers up here! Nice shot Sherry and I bet when you see one, you think of Gilligan's Island!!

Beeeuuutiful shots of your full-bodied Silver Spot, Sherry! Snaring this one was quite an accomplishment as they're never still for very long. I wonder if the old sugar water trick would work to keep them in one place longer. This one is lovely with your lavender lantana. Sounds like a tongue twister. :-D

Thanks for visiting and your very kind comment, Erv! Hubby suggested that it was about to burst forth with young. I'll have to look closely and see if she has swollen ankles, too.
