Orange Sulphur - Colias eurytheme - male - in the Blue Mountain Wildlife garden. These are fairly common from early spring into fall all over the area, only slightly less common than Cabbage Whites. There is enough backlighting in this view to see that the wide black border on the upper surface of the forewing is solid; females have several areas within the border where the base color of the wings is not covered by black scales.
