Summer in the South NEXT | START OVER | PREVIOUS Male Horace's Duskywing, Erynnis horatius, nectaring on the non-native Blue Porterweed, Stachytarpheta urticifolia. Notice how wooly he is. The color and heaviness of the coat remind me of a yak. Seems to be dressed improperly for the hot humid weather of South Florida, but it is one of the most commonly seen skippers in Florida.
