    Hi Folks,

    I'm a butterfly newbie so hope no one minds helping me with ID's. Saw this one last week in southern NY state. Afraid I was only able to get the one poor picture but I'm hoping it's enough to be recognized. I was thinking Tawny Crescent but I'm not sure. Thanks in advance!!!

    Thank you Toni! I thought so but wasn't sure. My Peterson's Guide says that they have grown very scarce in the East so I wanted to get some confirmation. Thanks again !
