Carol, that's a Gulf Fritillary and they don't migrate. If you click on the link you posted from BAMONA, scroll on down the page and look at the map. See all those orange dots? That's how spread out the range is for the Gulf Frit. Also, notice the section that says: Range: South America north through Central America, Mexico, and the West Indies to the southern United States. Wanders north to the central United States; rare northward.
