Zabulon, Broadwing, Sachem, 20 Aug 10




A few skipper pictures from our yard on Friday, 20 August. First, the ventral female Zabulon easily recognizable by the white HW edge. Middle: a Broadwing, our most numerous skipper; they have been around for some time. Finally, the Sachems are back--last year they stayed for about six weeks--this picture shows a ventral female with its well defined chevron on an olive-brown ground.
