User's notes
In the afternoon, a pair of skippers were flying around each other; one landed on a dwarf peach tree. Several times it left the tree, flew around a section of yard and returned to nearly the same place on the tree. On one of its trips, it landed on my camera's lens hood for a couple of seconds!
