Another butterfly we spotted at the Oconee Wildlife Management Area. This Southern Cloudywing (Thorybes bathyllus) was sunning itself in the warmth of the late afternoon sun. Although it, along with all the other butterflies, was on the move in search of foot, it settled with its wings spread for about a minute or so before it moved on.
