Skipper - Sachem (Atalopedes campestris)
One of the multitude of the little brown/tan Skippers that skip from flower to flower. This male was on one of the zinnia that add color to our veggie garden.
Sachems can be found in almost any open space: fields, meadows, parks, roadsides, disturbed areas, lawns, etc. They are a residents in the southeastern United States, and extreme southwest into Mexico. In the fall they migrate northward into great plains, along west coast, rarely reaching southern Canada.
