Meredith, well stated! I understand what you're conveying. I'm new to butterfly gardening, and learn new info. about them every day.... For me, I've seen various in the garden and pretty happy with what I've seen....quite a few.

It's interesting that TSTs are present up North as well as down South at the same time. I've seen a few in early spring here, and sporadically there after....in fact I saw one yesterday when it was puddling....

Mellie,
Is this the Hoary Edge skipper you've mentioned? There were several of them nectaring yesterday, some of them has slightly different marking...perhaps the difference b/w males and females? What are their hostplants? If anyone could share the info. on this skipper's hostplant? Thank you.
