But if you keep teasing me with this amazing skippers then I will have to visit Mexico. Yes I have here, you can find them in my collection if you just write 'skipper' on the search.

You welcome, of course they are the cutest but unfortunately in my country we have only 2 species and they are a bit boring compared to your amazing ones.
