Specimen type: Sighting
Observation notes: Observed Diana Fritillary in our yard sitting on Maple tree and then a daylily just at noon time today. Used Butterfly guide and close sighting to confirm identity. Not a common sight for Chatham Ontario as it is well north of its distribution map.
Status: Stray

Coordinator notes: I accepted the record because the observer was a science teacher (unlikely to invent a record) and an experienced birdwatcher. Perhaps you may wish to disallow the record, but I will stand by my judgement on it,
