Pepper-and-salt skipper

Found this almost as soon as I stepped out of the car. I saw only the one individual. This is a rare butterfly and is listed as an S3 species by the NHIC (10 or fewer known populations in Ontario). This is the 3rd location within Larose Forest where these skippers have been found.
