This morning, I saw the male cloudless sulphur zipping through the yard
every 15 minutes or so, never stopping for much of anything. Then a female
came in, flew around a few of our plants and landed on the partridge pea.
I sit right at the window with my camera by my side all day so I was able
to snap off a few pics of her ovipositing on the plant! It was pretty wild
to see that.

Later on, I went to the Great Neck Audubon Sanctuary to see what was flying
there. Very little was there other than the usual American Coppers,
Eastern-tailed blues, etc since there is very little nectar. I did happen
to follow a male Cloudless Sulphur around the fields down there as well but
he never landed on anything.

Notable species at my house in Wareham:
1 Male Cloudless Sulphur
1 Female Cloudless Sulphur
1 Black Swallowtail
1 Male Pipevine Swallowtail (first one in a couple days)

At Great Neck Audubon:
1 Cloudless Sulphur Male
3 Eastern-tailed blues
5 American Coppers
