This Silver-Spotted Skipper was frolicking around in my pollinator habitat.
According to the Wikipedia article, these skippers "almost never visit yellow flowers, favoring blue, red, pink, purple, and sometimes white and cream-colored ones." This one is drinking nectar from a lovely purple Ironweed blossom. I know, I know, Ironweed is an invasive species … but the pollinators like it!
