PINK-EDGED SULPHUR

Butterfly

I saw quite a few sulphurs last year, all within the span of a few days. We were walking along some flower beds in a botanical garden hoping to see some painted lady butterflies.  The day was a bonanza of butterflies, we saw three different kinds, including the sulphur.

    And speaking of sulphur, this fellow has two matchsticks for antennae.

    It appears to have alighted on a zinnia. This is a lovely photograph, Belinda.

    I have never seen one of these! How exciting! I was butterfly hunting today and spotted two I had never photographed before and one I’d never seen before. I hope my images come out as good as this when I upload them!
