Silvery Checkerspot - Closyne nycteis
Upperside is pale yellow-orange with dark borders and markings. Hindwing above and below has some white-centered submarginal spots; hindwing below is pale with a large white crescent at the margin .
Moist, somewhat open places including streamsides, meadows, forest openings.
I was walking when the little butterfly appeared. I hurry to take my camera and it's gone before I focus. And like magic it was back when I was storing for my camera :))
