Butterflies in October in Atlanta are quite a common site. This one is a garden visitor, and likes the flowers that people plant around their mailboxes, so you sometimes see one by the side of the road. It is a Pearl Crescent, Phyciodes tharos. The caterpillar eats several species of aster. More information on the butterfly is here.
