Erynnis horatius
spotted on spanish needles in grassy field
Another ringer, bayucca. And I see what you mean about the spots. Much appreciated.
Definitely a Spreadwing Skipper and definitely an Erynnis sp., about Horatius I am not 100% sure, since there are many Duskywings around which looks at first and second sight almost identical. You have to look carefully at each spot on the wings. It is a female, btw.
