Butterfly sighting

Location: my property in the town of Seneca
Wood County

This is the earliest that I've seen a Checkered White, the previous early date being August 6. After putting in a lot of effort yesterday walking through the fields to find a Common Ringlet for the NABA count, today I saw one in my front yard while looking out through my living room window.
