Butterfly or maybe moth? It didn't fly like a moth though. There was more orange on the underside of the wings than the top. I've never seen this little guy around here before. The wing shape is unusual. That is what caught my attention first. Anyone know what kind it is?
Open meadow area, on common clover. Virginia, Goochland area, zone 6b. Don't know if he is a native I have not seen before or migratory.
In Virginia, this is going to be a Zebra Swallowtail I think
