Northern Pearly-Eye Butterfly

I had a hard time making a positive ID on this butterfly because two others, the Eyed Brown and the Appalachian Brown, are really similar. Everything matches up with the description of the Northern Pearly-Eye though, including the fact they like to land on tree trunks and search out the sap. Photographed in the La Crosse Blufflands.
