Lone skipper

It was surprising how few skippers and butterflies were at the Franciscan Monastery towards the end of summer – usually, it’s packed with them at this time of year. This was the only skipper we saw last weekend.

Best to view in "Original" because other versions resized by PBase are decidedly
unsharp.

Nice sharp shot Helen. Butterflies seem to be scarcer here too this summer.
