Fiery Skipper
Hylephila phyleus

Observation date: July 03, 2023
Submitted by: Dobber31
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: This one stood out among all the other skippers flying, because it was so light, almost white. Shape and antennae length seemed to lean towards a Fiery. I'm not familiar with any Skippers of this color in this area. Thanks for your help with this... and on others.
