Butterfly identification question

Butterfly on Lorraine's Cape Honeysucklebutterfly-similar-to-one-lorraine-photographed

“Patience is a virtue” we’re told. Sometimes my patience wears thin when I’m searching the Internet and can’t locate an answer to my question. Today, I want to identify the Butterflies on my Cape Honeysuckle. My picture on the left, Internet picture on the right. Perhaps this site has identification of butterfly on my Cape Honeysuckle? Am I safe to say Agraulis Vanillae? Wikipedia offers this description. ~~ I’ll be honest, butterflies are not “my thing”; I prefer birds. However, I’m curious about my visitor!!
