Thanks, Chris. Yes, the name should be Silver Spotted, not Sided. We
"old folk" sometimes confuse our words. To the best of my knowledge, it
is classed as a butterfly, but I could not find a clear statement of
that fact.

Well shot, Jim.
That blue butterfly is gorgeous, but should that be silver spotted rather than
sided? Is a skipper a moth?

Jim,
The Eastern Tailed Blue is a beauty. The color is exquisite and I love
the fringed edge of the wings. You never cease to amaze me.

The larger butterflies seem to have moved on, but a few smaller ones are
still around. First, is a very tiny blue butterfly, approximately 3/4
inch in length, that likes to perch on grass or ground cover, the
Eastern Tailed Blue:

Next, the Silver Sided Skippers, which were performing their antics on
the Rose of Sharon:
