This is a Banded Orange butterfly (Dryadula phaetusa), also known as Banded Orange Heliconian or Orange Tiger, seen at the Calgary Zoo on 26th August.
"The sole representative of its genus, the Banded Orange Heliconian is native from Brazil to central Mexico, and in summer it can be found rarely as far north as central Kansas. Its wingspan ranges from 86 to 89 mm, and it is colored a bright orange with thick black stripes in males, and a duller orange with fuzzier black stripes in females."
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dryadula_phaetusa
Rained heavily overnight yet again and the day is grey and wet. I'm beginning to feel a slight touch of cabin fever and it's not even winter yet, LOL, even though snow fell a few days ago in the mountains and we might get snow/frost later this week. The snowy peaks looked so beautiful from the city.
