I don't see this variety every year, but they appear occasionally.  They 
are called American Snout-Nosed Butterflies because of their distinctive 
nose shape.  I spotted several today, mostly in pairs, in what appeared 
to be a mating ritual.  This one paused long enough for me to get a 
successful shot.
