Rayetta's Butterflies - A CB - BDS Update - Brazilian Skipper (Calpodes ethlius)

Crumby! Take a picture of that one.

OK Rayetta.

What are you doing Crumby, take the picture!

OK Rayetta. I just need to get the knobs aligned properly.

Huh! Crumby you better get a picture of that big skipper or else.

I'm almost there Rayetta. Praise be to the Merciful Goddess, the knobs or dials are aligned.

The skipper has flown off Crumby. And you may know Crumby, that skipper is a new one for the CB-BDS. So you shall reside here at this very spot until that skipper comes back. Then, you shall take its picture. All righty then.

All righty then, Rayetta. Where are you going?

Into the house. I need to freshen up. Have me a picture anon. I don't want any whining or excuses. I want a picture of that skipper for the CB-BDS, anon.

Well all righty then, Rayettta. Bye. Mercy! It sure is hot out here on the south pasture border. Please WG, grant me a nice picture of this winged vermin expeditiously so that I too may enjoy the AC. Ha! There it is again. Plus the semi-trusty C 5060 has settled down to normalcy. Whirr. Click. Whirr. Click. Now I need to move closer. Whirr. Click. Whirr. Click. All righty then. What's the safest route to the LDR's office? Let's coordinate. Whoa! I need to pee. Where may I do that without being espied? How about rye cheer. Ah! All righty then! AC, here I come.

Gimme that camera, Crumby.

All righty then.

Hmmm. These are identifiable. OK. Crumby, you are a good boy tonight and you shall get a treat. Hmmm. This is the biggest regular skipper I have ever espied. That's +2 on that Rayetta scale. Crumby, do you have an opinion as to the relative tameness versus nervousness of this skipper?

That is a nervous skipper, Rayetta.

That's what I thought. So the scales go to +2 - 3 for the Brazilian skipper. Also, this Brazilian skipper is very interested in Cannas which do not grow at the CB, unless we forget to weed them. Cannas, however, do grow adjacent.
