   That looks like a large moth.

      From Britannica:
      Skippers are considered an intermediate form between butterflies and moths. The head and small, stout body of the adult tend to resemble those of a moth. However, when at rest, most skippers hold the first pair of wings vertically, as butterflies do.

   Serendipitous photo of complementary colors. Great shot.

      I always wonder how long he may waited for such shots. The cats are often easier. I'm sure.

   Skippers are notoriously difficult to identify. Maybe fiery skipper (Hylephila phyleus).

   Recently read that the experts now refer to butterflies as "day-flying moths."
