Common Buckeye
MJ,

You are correct, it is a Common Buckeye, Junonia coenia.
You may safely move to guide page.

Great series, I always love seeing the different developmental stages.
You have a nice camera as well, on the last image you can start to see the scales on the wing.

Thank you
and I apologize. I meant to post the series with (common) Buckeyes but clicked backwards to re-check my spelling of Nymphalidae.
(I also have trouble referring to something so beautiful as common).
