Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Sighted on one of our Black Knight Butterfly Bushes just before a rain shower in Rockbridge County outside of Lexington, VA. Very windy, humid, and temperatures around 91 degrees. This is the first Diana Fritillary I've seen in my 60 years. I was shocked. This year we've hardly had any butterflies and it's been truly alarming.
