Red Spotted Admiral (Limenitis arthemis)

I chased this butterfly around yesterday during our walk. I'm pretty sure it's a red spotted admiral, I've photographed one of these before. I was trying to get a photo in flight, but no luck. It's harder than you might think. They flitter about here and there constantly never headed in a single direction. But they do land for a few seconds or minutes. In this photo the butterfly is on a Chinese tallow leaf.
