Nice details in both images. I sure can't help with the ID.

I seldom go looking for Flutterbys, but attempt to capture those I
come across. This last week was a bit frustrating, as several Western
Tiger Swallowtails refused to stop and pose for a moment, as well as
what I think were a couple of small Fritillaries.
I did catch one I don't know the name of. It's small, about an inch
across. <http://zone-10.com/tope2/main.php?g2_itemId=20447>
And I did get one WTS. Not the greatest shot, in a way, but an action
shot. Wind was starting to pick up along the river, and this one
struggled to land and stay put. I don't know of the curved abdomen is
part of its effort to hold on.

I left little halos on the claws, where it is gripping as hard as it
can, but I"ll probably remove them later.
It fluttered to and fro at this spot a few times. Then much stronger
gusts blew it into the shrubbery up the bank.
