If there were pollinator police, the Silver-spotted Skipper would get arrested. It steals nectar without pollinating—getting the goods without doing the work. Still, it’s been loving our pollinator park, and we can’t wait to open it to the public.
It’s National Pollinator Week—cheers to the hardworking bees, butterflies, and even the sneaky skippers.

If there were pollinator police, the Silver-spotted Skipper—Epargyreus clarus—might just get arrested. While it’s a frequent visitor to flowers, it often skips the important job of pollinating. Using its long proboscis, it can reach deep into blooms for nectar without making contact with the flower’s reproductive parts—meaning it takes the reward but doesn’t do the work.
This little nectar thief has been loving our pollinator park, and while it’s not the most helpful guest, it’s still a fascinating part of the ecosystem. We can’t wait for you to explore the park when it opens and see all the action for yourself.
It’s National Pollinator Week—a perfect time to celebrate the bees, butterflies, beetles, and yes, even the rule-bending skippers who help keep our gardens and food systems thriving. ... See MoreSee Less
