Thanks, interesting variation
Thanks Cliff it's interesting that a specimen I shot from last year, to me, looks a lot different but is same species. Quite a variation on the wing markings at least to this amateur!

Yes, Cloudless sulphurs are variable.
Males have limited markings and some have no markings. This specimen is a male and the one sighted last year is a female.

Hi Dick
Just an FYI: you don't need to copyright your pictures. It's already done when you post here. Plus, in today's world where everyone has a good camera, there are 10 billion better pictures already out there.
