I just found this Cloudless Sulphur Caterpillar today (9/18/20) here in North Georgia-Atlanta Metro while out with my dog. It was on the road and seems a bit sluggish. I think it might be ready to pupate.

Phoebis sennae. The flowers are flame acanthus. Photo at Ladybird Johnson Wildflower Center, Austin.

Cloudless Sulphur (Phoebis sennae) nectaring Bog Sage (Salvia uliginosa), 7/26/2014, The Landing's Sparrow Field, Skidaway Island, Savannah, Chatham Co., Ga.

Morning near Mobile Bay.

This was the smallest and lightest one I've seen, no bigger than a Cabbage White.

Watching the sun slowly set over the city on this lovely spring evening. Gotta love seeing the sun slowly disappear behind the horizon... though a sunset like this by the beach would be even better. Pic taken from around San Jose, CA.

Brief weather update:

High pressure was now along the coast. Today thru Monday, the north state was to be mostly sunny. Temps were to be warming and by the upcoming weekend, temps would be roughly 8-15 degrees above normal. In fact, it would feel a lot like summer!

But I consider this as failure trying "long exposure" T.T

Two days later. The leaf this gal had been hiding on fell off the tree. I was able to shoot some macros before she warmed up and flew off.

A rare clear shot of Mt. Robson as my dad and I were about to start our trip.

The fishermen attached this cable to their boats and used the winch to haul their boats onto the shore. This shot was taken in mid-afternoon on a cloudless day.

The setting for these was perfect in the Cancer Survivors' Park in Memphis, Tennessee.

Cloudless Sulphur Butterfly

...except for an impressive steam plume from Ferrybridge power station, lit from above by a near full moon and from below by the streetlamp glow. A steam cloud this size, rising to perhaps 3,000 feet, is created by the combination of still air and sub-zero temperatures. Looking across Newton Ings, near Castleford.

Another young one in our protective cage. This is a cloudless sulphur larva munching on some twigs from one of our cassia trees.

Update on the Gulf Fritillary: (s)he emerged strong and was getting antsy to get out of the cage. I wasn't able to get a good photo. She's beautiful and hopefully is one of the ones we see in the garden.

Fantastic spring weather at the Gazelle 50th Commemorative Fly-in, Middle Wallop.

Feeding on a Fire Bush that is surrounded by a ripening beautyberry. The beautyberry has enjoyed the summer and is standing quite tall.

It's often hard to believe that skies without a single cloud exist, especially if you've lived in Ireland for a long time. Palermo greeted me with a crystal clear blue sky at my arrival today :-)
