Skipper on Clover for Ruby Tuesday

I'm hoping this pink clover (pink being a tint of red) qualifys for Ruby Tuesday.Amazingly surprising its not raining today yet! and I have discovered there are skippers out there. I am heading out for a walk through my favourite buytterfly meadow to see what I can find of this minature Lepidoptera species! This is one of my favourite summer time activities. Happy Ruby Tuesday to all!

  1. Sweet little tucked-away moment you captured - skipper feeding on a blossom! When I do my backyard overhaul (getting a little late for it again this summer...) I'm going to have an area for a butterfly garden.

  3. Deborah, I find butterflies enchanting! As soon as the weather dries up and my Coneflowers come into bloom my garden will be full of fritillaries.

  6. Beautiful! Hope you find a lot more for us. I seem to see more skippers than I do larger butterflies. I like their fuzzy look and their big dark eyes.
