Hey /an/, I was just wondering if anybody could identify what type of butterfly this is?

It's only of interest to me because I live in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. My uncle found him about a week ago laying in the snow, almost dead. This is odd because like most March's in Canada, this one has been cold, with plenty of snow (about 2 feet up until I guess the middle of March when it steadily began to disappear). I mean, this is a butterfly, which means it was once a caterpillar, and once had itself a cocoon.

Just seems very odd.

Pretty butterfly, though, even though I have no idea what it is.

sometimes, caterpillars find indoor, or semi indoor places to pupate. sometimes, the warmth of such places causes them to emerge prematurely.

Dunno what kind that one is though...

these butterflies are known to over winter ,,hiding inside the roof of a house or shed,,probable the one you found was woken by a sunny day and then the weather turned again back to snowing.
