was playing with almostdones camera while she was at work. don't tell her


does any one know what kind of butterfly/moth this may be?

Wowwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

fun to find out almostdone and neverdone 'share' a camera
it's a butterfly...skipper-type maybe, hard to tell with only that angle, but what a great face shot you caught!

Haha... We only "share" when I'm at work. Gotta admit though, all this time he wouldn't touch it, he has suddenly realized how fun it can be. I love it!

Thanks dirt. I got lucky. I had trouble turning it on. I better stick to digging. I'm glad it's a butterfly!

oh no, you just need more practice and then pretty soon you'll need your own gotta feed the photo hungry mob

Long tailed skipper....
Raises the kids on my climbing beans.... Will also use Desmodium and centrosema, clitoria.... Mostly any bean type plant....

Here's the caterpillar:



And.... Another pic of the butterfly:

Notice the bean leaves.....

That's awesome stone! Are they mostly southern residents?

Very cool info on the Skipper and the Beans. Almost like a nursery rhyme.

Wikipedia suggests that these guys aren't much for the cold... but the range map shows them existing over much of the eastern states....
