Hesperiidae
Some type of moth, I believe. Tough to see markings in the pic, but he flew away before I could get more.
This is a Skipper Butterfly, Hesperiidae. Look at the typical large head. One of the most tricky butterfly to ID. Best chance if you can see all 4 sides.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skipper_(bu...)http://bugguide.net/node/view/189Do you have other pictures?
