Clouded Skipper on Pickerelweed

I have found that the patch of pickerweed off the pier at Sunset Bay attracts all kinds of insects, including several different kinds of skippers. This time I found a clouded skipper. One of it's distinguishing features is the 3 little dots at the back of the wings.
