As August came to an end I enjoyed several days in the Carolina Sandhills N=
WR near McBee, SC, combing through Liatris and Slender Ironweed hoping for =
a skipper. Other than enjoying an excellent display of Liatris secunda (hu=
ndreds of flowering stems), I had zero success with any skipper other than =
an occasional duskywing. The only Dotted Skippers reported from the Caroli=
na Sandhills NWR are first brood.

When I turned my attention to the NC Sandhills Game Land in Richmond County=
I was not optimistic. It has been a tough year for skippers. After criss=
-crossing "Block A' I was able to find a few areas of late blooming Slender=
Ironweed, a species preferred by Dotted Skippers. I found my first worn a=
nd torn Dotted Skipper in a field margin on August 31st. Per my recent rep=
ort, I had better luck success on September 1st, finding 3 fresher Dotted S=
kippers in 3 locations.

I returned Thursday, September 3rd and concentrated of several of the bette=
r areas of Ironweed. After a slow start I photographed 2 Dotted Skipper on =
a single clump of Ironweed in mid-morning and by 1 pm I had located and pho=
tographed 2 more in an area 3 or so miles to the east. 3 of the 4 were mal=
es. I added a worn Byssus Skipper and just before leaving spotted a colorf=
ul male Whirlabout posing on Ironweed.

I have not seen a Gulf Fritillary, a Little Yellow, a Eufala Skipper, an Oc=
ola Skipper, etc. in the sandhills. The good news is the Dotted Skipper app=
ears to be a species that can do well in a hot, dry year.
