Name That Butterfly!
I'm thinking Howard, but Camille is nice, too. (Oh, BTW, what kind of butterfly is this, please?)

I agree with Gloria, it looks like a Pearl Crescent. Their host plant are asters.

Again?
Another Pearl Crescent, maybe? This one allowed me to get incredibly close to it.

Wow, he allowed you get so close because he was probably tired of fighting for his life! He looks pretty ragged! I think that it is another pearl crescent, at least for a little while longer!

It can be really hard to tell the pearl crescent from the northern crescent. At one time they were considered to be one species.
