Vanessa atalanta
Medium sized butterfly, dark brown/black with distinctive red bands on the inside of the wings. White markings distally from the orange.
Suburban yard, resting on a handrail.
Very late butterfly, showed up on an unseasonably warm November day and was nice enough to pose for a couple of quick pictures on my phone!
