Tawny Emperor

Asterocampa clyton

Description:

Slightly larger than a quarter. Orange on large wings fading to brown on smaller wings. Tan spots along outer rim and dark brown spots toward center. Same pattern seemed to be on underside of wings as well although not as vibrant.

Notes:

Seemed very friendly. Joined us for lunch at a picnic table.
