Skipper on Black-eyed Susan

The black-eyed Susans in the back yard are past their prime but are still providing a good splash of color. They continue to be magnets for the skippers and the whites. I haven’t looked closely at this one to decide which skipper it is, of the many varieties that seem to be in such abundance. I like the hairy head and half folded wings as it perches lightly on the black-eyed Susan, basking in the late afternoon sun.
