Common Wood-nymph
This butterfly was really pretty, but I could never get him to land for a picture. Then I sat down in the woods, and he wouldn't leave me alone.
Great Spangled Fritillary
Pipevine Swallowtail
The butterflyweed was in full bloom and the fields were full of butterflies.

The turkey chicks are cute! Nice shots on the butterflies. From top to bottom they are: Common Wood-nymph, Great Spangled Fritillary, and Pipevine Swallowtail, which is the toxic model species for a number of edible black and iridescent blue mimic butterflies in the eastern U.S.
