Broad-winged Skipper and American Copper

Hello all,
I snuck up to the Oak Opennings to try to photograph broad-winged skipper, which I was unsuccessfull at a week ago, and I had modest success.  After working for two hours in one spot with about 5-6 broad-wingeds I finally got one to sit for a photo.  Also later I ran into this nice American copper, common at Kitty Todd, but always a fun find.  Things are staring to wind down in this big year, and its time to start looking for southern strays.  Hopefully the fiery's, sachems, little yellows, and cloudless sulphurs will start showing up!
