The Sulphurs
»[p‰n[K ~vp…x£

Rising in swarms (large number of insects, birds moving about together) from muddy roads, or dancing by hundreds over fields of clover (lower - growing plants for cattle) Sulphurs may be seen throughout the world; and North American continent in particular.
They are the great lovers of open fields, meadows and roadsides. Sometimes great clouds of young Sulphurs gather at roadside mud puddles (small pools of water) This habit has given the clouded Sulphur the common name of ‘mud puddle butterfly’
The clouded Sulphur is a lighter yellow than its close relative, the Orange Sulphur. Both have similar markings, with wings edged in black.
Every year, two to three broods (young ones hatched at one time) of Sulphurs hatch throughout the spring. You may find the larvae, and later in summer the full grown butterfly, near their favourite places.
