Looks like a butterfly to me, Steve, and a beautifully photographed one as well. I love the use of selective focus for insect shots.

Butterflies have those "cans" on the end of their antennae, moths don't (I read somewhere). Kind of hard to tell on this one whether "cans" are there or not...

Nice shot! I believe moths have a feathery antenna. Send it in to Bugguide.net
