Hammock Skipper

Polygonus leo, the hammock skipper, is a species of dicot skipper in the butterfly family Hesperiidae. It is found in the Caribbean Sea, Central America, North America, and South America.

On rare occasions, Hammock Skippers perch on the top side of leaves with wings opened to get a little sun, showing the aquamarine color of their body and large white spots in the forewings.
