A yellow butterfly landing on my hand

A few month ago when I started gardening I experienced what some of you might have, a butterfly landing on your hand. I was out to my porch with my pocket camera to take photos of my water spinach sprouts. After one or two photos, there came this tiny yellow butterfly that flying around me and my pots.

It lands on me when I gave it my hand. I wonder it was Pocky's spirit who wanted to say hello. Pocky was my little lovebird who passed away years ago. I know butterflies represent the spirits of our passed away family members, friends or pets. But that month was not his hatch day or his death anniversary month... so maybe I thought too much... :D

Here's a clear photo of the butterfly, it was resting on the ground. I wonder if it was a female one and she was actually laying eggs on the ground. I read some butterflies lay eggs on dirt instead of the leaves. Do you know what species is this one? I went back into my house to get honey and I offered it with a toothpick but the butterfly didn't want it. :P The photo of me offering the honey was very blurry so I didn't post it here. But it was the same way with how I fed a dragonfly on my previous blog post. Btw, do you know they can refuse food with their tiny feet? It's like a cat who refuses a kiss by putting their paws on your lips. :D
