Wood Nymph

 

Not 100% on the identification on this. This was a fairly large and weak flying butterfly - when I started stalking it, it flew from brush to brush and ultimately settled in on the underside of a log along the edge of an artificial Oak Savanna area. I suspect it's a female Wood Nymph, though it does not jibe completely with the reference photos in my field guides.
