[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This is Colias Croceus or Clouded Yellow butterfly

Clouded Yellow - Colias croceus

This is a strong migrant that most years reaches as far as northern France and southern England, sometimes much further north into Scotland and Ireland.Number
fluctuate with each year, some years being remembered as "Clouded Yellow Years".
They are very regular further south and can be found in most habitats and most altitudes although they decrease in numbers with increasing altitude. They fly very fast and settle only briefly for nectar when they are usually too alert to approach for photography.
Chartreuse egg laid singly on leaves of various legumes, especially clovers (Trifolium).
Flight:Several broods; March-December, weather permitting.
Caterpillar hosts: Plants in the pea family (Fabaceae) including alfalfa (Medicago sativa), white clover (Trifolium repens), and pea (Pisum sativum).
Adult food: Flower nectar of many plants.
Habitat- Almost any open country; especially numerous in clover meadows, parks, and pastures; absent from dense forests and extreme deserts.
Range- North Africa and southern Europe and eastwards through Turkey into the Middle East.It occurs throughout much of Europe as a summer migrant, but very few individuals reach Scandinavia.
Because it feeds on clover, alfalfa, vetches, and many other pervasive legumes, it has spread easily.

Hi Tanja, an other splendid composition with this wonderful butterfly, great colors, amazing details, superb light, very well done, have a nice sunday, ciao Silvio

Excellent shot, Tanja, beautiful colors, pov and dof for a great macro. TFS

Hi Tanja
Wow, I can't believe you still have butterflies flying around. I've seen the odd moth and aphid, we've had a few good killing frosts lately. I must say this Clouded Yellow Butterfly is very pretty, his yellow wings against the pink flower is vibrant. Excellent DOF and sharp detail.
TFS Janice

Wow! your shot is amazing I love it I love buterflies, and this one is very close perfect!
