Polygonia faunus

Observation date: June 09, 2020
Submitted by: Paul Filteau
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: observed along a logging road 10 minutes north of Thunder Bay, Ontario. One side of the road was logged this spring and the butterflies were observed over several kilometres either singular or in pairs. Since they flitted constantly, this one likely stayed in place because of wind. A lot of other butterflies and moths are out along the road
