Field Notes

Description:

Small, predominantly orange butterflies with black or brown markings (which can be somewhat variable) and a lighter underside. The body may have an iridescent sheen.

Notes:

I was surprised I managed to get decent photos! These are very flighty, and don't sit still long.
