North America boasts about 275 species of skippers, and some of them are very hard to tell apart. This one could be an Essex or European skipper, a small skipper—or something else entirely. Named for their habit of skipping quickly from flower to flower, skippers have broad bodies and long antennae, often clubbed at the end. These images were captured in the Kootenay region of south central British Columbia, Canada.
