Saw this guy at a nursery today. I'm assuming it's a Fritillary of some kind. Anyone know which kind?

The Echinacea 'Magnus' and White Echinacea seemed particularly popular with the visiting pollinators, so in my cart they went! Smiling

Also found this tiny Skipper on my Mentha spicata blooms:

It's so small, I'm wondering if it's a Least Skipper?
