Limenitis archippus
Very similar to a Monarch butterfly with the noticeable difference being the line across the hind wing. Spotted resting on the sidewalk by house in the evening.
The definition of a viceroy according to Wikipedia is a royal official that runs a country as the representative of the monarch. Thought that was an interesting tidbit about the name of the butterfly! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Viceroy

Thanks MickGrant!
Nice photos
If you have the ability to lighten your picture, more people would look at it.
