#WingedWednesday #FediversalPictures #DaintySulfur

The teensy #butterfly that is the Dainty Sulfur breeds on a host plant that makes humans cringe and cuss: Spanish Needles. In defense of growing Spanish Needles in my yard, it's a great security plant to grow if you have a problem with prowlers. You've heard of paint tagging an offender, I'm sure--but the seeds of the Spanish Needles hold fast to clothing and are a bitch to remove, so it performs very much like tagging a perp. Not to mention how CUTE these li'l guys are! When they flock around a growth of Spanish Needles, the bunch of 'em looks like yellow glitter.
