A Butterfly

I spotted this little butterfly on a flower in Wyoming. He was cooperative so I took a few photos.
I used a Sony RX10IV. All comments are welcome.

Thank you Mark. I know quixdraw posted a similar butterfly a week or so ago. They are beautiful little things, nice to photograph.

That is a tiny one Dennis and very pretty. I like the composition of the last image in particular.

Thank you Brenda. I had never seen one of these little skippers and then saw several in different areas of the country. They are pretty and easy to photograph IF they can only hold still for a couple of seconds. Fortunately they will fly off the flower and in a few seconds fly right back again. Good to hear from you. I hope you and yours are well.

Lovely series and I always enjoy seeing the skippers which always appear to be happy to pose for the camera.

Thanks for the fine words and for taking a look. I have not seen many but the ones I have seen would fit your description perfectly.
