Very well camouflaged - Gray Cracker (Hamadryas februn)

Another great butterfly, while sitting around waiting for the birds to show!

For those of you in the know, please feel free to correct my identification of this butterfly. I am basing this on the Kaufman Field guide, North American, Page 216.
