In case you're wondering about the above photo, that's my first sulphur! It took exactly one week for it to come out of the chrysalis. Mom was taking care of them today while I was at work and she said she saw this odd-looking leaf that upon second glance turned out to be a butterfly! You can definitely tell that the sulphurs have adapted well with their host plants. When they hang from the plant they look like a yellowed leaf, just like their chrysalis!

I'm pretty sure this is a Cloudless Sulphur but if anyone wants to confirm or deny I'd appreciate it. This guy was a little smaller than the ones I usually see, but his chrysalis was small, too. Hmmm... Mom thought the marking on it were interesting; I guess she thought they were all yellow.
