I have had the pleasure of watching several Cloudless Sulphur go through their life cycle in my yard this year from mating, to egg-laying, to caterpillars feeding, and then turning into a chrysalis, to the final step of eclosing as a new butterfly.  So much to see and learn here at home in the gardens.
