August 22, 2020

Location: Fellsmere, my house

I am a Pearl Crescent Butterfly
I live throughout the eastern United States
If I emerge in the spring or fall
My wings will have different traits.

Note: As described in the linked article, "Spring and fall broods (form marcia) have a gray mottled hindwing below."
