STOPS ALONG THE WAY

SULPHUR BUTTERFLY (TWO PHOTOGRAPHS)

24 Comments

Sulpher-2It’s been a terrific year for butterflies in my part of the country. When visiting a local botanical garden, in among the clouds of painted ladies was this solitary sulphur butterfly. I went back a day later and I saw it again. Unlike the painted ladies who were constantly on the move, the sulphur, Pink-edged or Clouded (I’m not sure which) savoured the nectar for a while.

  1. Wonderful captures and excellent detail, Belinda! We’ve had a shortage of butterflies, too, and when I do see one it is often just the one.

  11. Like a beautiful little Tinkerbell fairy! So delicate and dainty. And sitting on one of my favourite flowers, the zinnia with its pastel colours so intense and opaque. I love these two photos, especially the second one that shows the butterfly in profile. Just so lovely, Belinda.
