Cloudless Sulphur (Phoebis sennae) on Jewelweed R5020 Martin Co, IN PFN

Cloudless Sulphur (Phoebis sennae) nectaring on Jewelweed.

Martin County, Indiana, USA.

September 4, 2017.

 

Few butterflies have a long enough proboscis to reach into Jewelweed (aka Touch-Me-Not) flowers and get to their nectar. I've only seen Skippers do this before.
