Vanessa virginiensis
Orange & black markings on dorsal side. Ventral markings have eye spot mimicry.
Thanks for the ID, Dana!Thanks, Dilek! I was at Home Depot to pick up a Butterfly Bush to plant in our front yard and I had a lot of opportunities to see several species stop by the plant in just a few minutes.
Very beautiful video and spottings! Thanks for sharing!
