Fritillary Butterfly

Yesterday I was out hunting for wildflowers when this butterfly fluttered into view.  Usually orange ones are Monarchs and I have enough photos of those, but this one looked different so I took a couple shots even though I was too far away to get a good photo.   
June 22 Variegated Fritillary
I think it might be a Great Spangled Fritillary.  I identified it using this website.  The flowers are Swamp Milkweed.
