Between Blanco and Wimberley, Texas, USA

One more Sulphur, this one seems to have more distinctly yellow wings and I don't think that's just from the lighting...

Full-sized versions of my sul

Clouded Sulphers are all yellow with no orange
dorsally (above / back view). Since this is a ventral view other characteristics are noted. The orange tinge at the base of the forewing, gray scaling of wings, elliptical shape of hind wing as well as location indicate this specimen is Orange Sulphur. The location is at the range edge published for Clouded Sulphur.
Is the date correct?

 
Corrected date
Cliff, thanks for the thoughts and information. I corrected the date to 2/13/16 (may be plus or minus a day or two at most).
