#TongueOutTuesday with a Woodland Skipper (Ochlodes sylvanoides.) A proboscis is not exactly a tongue but is often described as one because it functions similarly, acting as a tube for feeding.

Woodland Skippers (Ochlodes sylvanoides) are found across much of western North America and can be identified by the orange uppersides of thier wings that have dark borders and a wingspan of 0.98–1.26 in. #butterfly #nature #photography #skipper

I thought this was kinda funny in a geeky way I took the above picture of Ochlodes Sylvanoides yesterday, and when I asked the search engine to come up with an ID, the picture was the one below it.
A comparative set of images of a Skipper butterfly species. The one above is on a rock, and the one below is on a leaf, but the two butterflies are nearly identical in position and markings.

This little butterfly has been visiting my oregano flowers. I believe it’s a Woodland Skipper (Ochlodes sylvanoides)
A small butterfly has landed on white oregano flowers- it has orange and black wings and appears to be quite fuzzy

This Large Skipper (Ochlodes sylvanus) is the first reported in 2019. It was spotted & photographed on Wednesday on the Isle of Wight by Peter Hunt

Large Skipper (Ochlodes sylvanus) on Viper's bugloss (Echium vulgare)

Close up of a slightly backlighted large skipper butterfly which is orange and brown and the undersides of the wings have some orange-and brown checkering also caused by the light shining through. Skippers as depicted here often have their winges closed. The image shows the left side of the butterfly. Head pointing up, wing tips to ther right bottom corner of the image. It is resting on an inflorescence of Echium vulgare thet has light blue petals, small purple anthers and pink filaments. The sun lighting up the filaments. The background is out of focus and shades of green. To the right of the image there is the stalk of a grass inflorescence parallel to the side of the image.

Woodland skippers (Ochlodes sylvanoides) are widespread in OR/WA & fly now, summer to fall with a peak in August. They're less than an inch in wingspan & common in urban areas. If you see a quick darting, yellowish tan butterfly, it's likely this one. The larval food plants...

Can anyone recommend any good online ecological #bioinformatics courses? Would appreciate guidance, I don't have buckets of time so the more direct and relevant the better. Thanks in advance!

Another free choice for Day 30 of @europebutterfly's #AprilButterflyMonth, a Large Skipper (Ochlodes sylvanus) from @BBOWT's Bernwood Meadows. Often overlooked in favour of larger, more colourful butterflies, I think they have a charm (and cuteness) all of their own!

Same colour scheme like the Browns with brown +orange ,but much smaller and more 'fluttery' are the Skippers. The Large skipper, Ochlodes sylvanus, has a more speckled upperwing with more brown, while the Small skipper, Thymelicus lineol, is almost all orange. #BigButterflyCount
