A Common Grass Yellow sips nectar from the Lavender Sorrel (Oxalis barrelieri) in Green Lane Park, Singapore

Oxalis barreliere (Lavender Sorrel, Barrelier's Woodsorrel) is a herb. Flowers frequently. Each flower has white to faint pink petals with a yellow centre. Fruit capsules hang down like a lantern (see image). I identified this plant from Google Lens.
