New Sighting
The first photo might be the Orange Sulphur (a bit of orange coloration on the forewing by the leading margin of the hindwing). My neighbor released over 20 Monarchs in the last two weeks. Most of the ones seen today are probably from the release.
[Interesting which-sulphur-is-this puzzle. Possibly a hybrid? jc]
