The Double Ruffled Rose of Sharon had attracted 9 of these skippers!! I couldn't get all of them at once with my cell phone's camera. This picture shows three skippers. There were also honeybees landing on the same blooms. It didn't bother these skippers at all!
Picture taken at 11:08. I was puzzled by the fact that there weren't any other skippers. There is a Butterfly Bush 50ft away with Fiery Skippers. They were not attracted to this bush at all.
