The Common Grass Yellow butterfly/Eurema hecabe simulata feeding on the penta and the mums in my yard. This is a medium-sized butterfly that flies close to the ground. Its wingspan is about 40mm. It belongs to the family Pieridae.
This year I couldn't take very many shots of butterflies so it's a pleasure to be able to click any kind that stops by for a sip of nectar! Here is an Irish blessing that I found online...words that I would wish for all my blog friends and visitors...always!
May the wings of the butterfly kiss the sun
And find your shoulder to light on,
To bring you luck, happiness and riches
Today, tomorrow and beyond.

Hi Kanak,
I am just now visiting those who left comments on my last week's SkyWatch post. I didn't even read it carefully enough to see that it was you. How've you been? I'll have to get your new blog in my Corner Garden sidebar.
I enjoyed your butterfly photos. I haven't seen any around here for awhile, and it will be some time before I do.
Happy New Year!
