Trying to ID some older non-bird nature pics and I'm stuck on this one. Taken in upstate NY on October 7 of this year. I think it might be a type of Sulfur?

I'd consider a Juvenal's Duskywing for that last wing, but I should note that even experts have problems with this genus.

Dogfaces have poodles on their forewings.

You were laughing and I was busy trying to find a picture of a poodle on a forewing.
Too soon old and too late smart.
