Butterfly - Cloudless Sulphur
by Dale R. Palmer

These little guys fly around very fast... and this one then landed on each
flower for just a few seconds. By using burst shutter speed of 4 frames per
second, I was able to get this not too bad photo for the challenge.

It is a "Cloudless Sulphur, Phoebis sennae" best I can tell. (I Googled
solid yellow butterfly to find out - LOL).

Oh, that's lovely, Dale. So very pretty on that nice purple flower. Good job with the detail, even on the face! :)
