Fawn-Spotted Skipper This subject is smaller than the one previously posted and has a mahogany colored wing with whitish gray powder-like pattern on the wings. I'm wondering if it is laying eggs because you can see a liquid is forming on the leaf, and it went on producing this in distinct circles across the leaf.
