2. I don't know the answer, of course. But, after collecting my jaw looking at this
and admiring it's beauty and the artistry of your capture - I have to tell you, it looks alive and well.
Even though you shot it.

4. According to Butterflies Through Binoculars, that's got all the
markings of an American Lady butterfly.

5. I think you're right. I did some looking and American Painted Lady is what I found...
I love the name. Sounds like a trollop, for sure!
