Cloudless Sulphur, puddling Not only was the puddle very popular this day, but it must have been a really good one. This kind of butterfly rarely sits still for anything. Normally they fly around very erratically. Cloudless sulphur,Geotagged,Phoebis sennae,Summer,United States Click/tap to enlarge Species introCountry intro

    Yeah, this was definitely a time it was worth it to lie on the ground. When they're folded up I prefer to make the wings either parallel or perpendicular to the sensor. They don't look right otherwise. Posted 10 years ago
