Did you know most skippers build temporary leaf houses? As caterpillars, they protect themselves from predators by rolling themselves up in the leaves of their host plant. In this photo, you can see the shadow of a Hammock Skipper caterpillar through its shelter.@ButterflyBCBC

Throwback to 2018 Schaus' swallowtail butterfly monitoring. I hope I can get back to this mosquito-ridden island for more fieldwork this year; perhaps this pandemic has really impacted my remaining sanity. #fieldwork
