Butterfly ids

May 4th was a sunny day and I saw at least 4 species of butterflies out by the house. I feel confident of ids on 2 of them; not as positive on 2 others. Just as with birds I can look at a butterfly with a distinctive feature but the only entry I find in an id book doesn't quite match and the butterfly is rare to boot. That is what happened with me for the golden-banded skipper. Here are the 2 I'm sure about.

Common Buckeye

Variegated Fritillary
