One of my favorite flowers decorated by a butterfly

I think this is garlic, or maybe a relative in the allium family, growing in the barnyard garden at Middleton Place.
A Silver-spotted Skipper was making his way down the patch.
I wider view of the row, showing the flowers in all stages of bloom.

There is a patch of these lemony yellow flowers at the entrance to the swamp I frequent.
It had just stopped raining and the sun popped out, lighting up the flowers and this Silver-spotted Skipper.
He was the only insect I noticed and well over 100 blooms were there for him to work over.
