I took some pictures of butterflies at work today.

Some species of Underwing moth was a close as I could get to identifying this moth I happened to see flying around at the same time, not sure why since it is a nocturnal species.
Also saw what I believe is a female Marine Blue flying around.
I feel like there are an abundance of butterflies this year! Great pics!
