Dainty Sulphur
Nathalis iole

Observation date: November 14, 2013
Submitted by: SeEtta
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Sunny day with light breeze, temp going to around 60 F. Found in my yard not far from two Agastache rupestris, called Sunset Hyssop plants in my garden that have only a few partial flower blooms left and a potted flower with a few blooms. Though we have had pretty warm temperatures in Canon City this fall, the temps have fallen well below freezing on a number of occasions which has stopped flowering of most plants so not much for butterfly to nectar on.
