Polites peckius
Small butterfly that is an ochre color with yellowish bars in the middle of the wings.
Prefers open grassy areas and often feeds on asters, clover and other field-grown wildflowers.
Seen in a field recently cleared of wheat grass, that is now filled with Pink Clover, Foxtail Grass, Moth Mullein, Queen Anne's Lace and Coneflowers.

I appreciate the welcome, Maria, and I look forward to many more spottings by others as well as my own. :)
Nice first spotting on Noah - welcome to the Project!
