A coupler of Variegated Fritillary (Euptoieta claudia, with one showing the damage of living.
Eastern Tail-blue (Cupido comyntas) with only one of the four tails still intact.
Eastern Tiger Swallowtail (Papilio glaucus)
Common Buckeye (Junonia coenia)
American Lady (Vanessa virginiensis)
Pearl Crescent (Phyciodes tharos)
Fiery Skipper (Hylephila phyleus).
You know who. No word back yet on that tagged Monarch I saw last week.
