cloudless sulphur

The cloudless sulphur is almost as hard to catch on camera as a humming bird. I've been chasing these shy, darting, fast little creatures around for awhile trying to get a shot. They love hibiscus flowers and we have about a dozen so he was very busy fleeing from me. They are like magnets to the flowers too. Here he is with his head buried inside. I thought I'd hurt myself trying to get a full body shot, I'm exhausted, and sweatin hot with the experience.
