Cabbage White Up Close

Here is the most common butterfly in our yard, the cabbage white. So far, I have seen lots of honey bees, but few butterflies. However, there are slews of oak moths fluttering around this area. The moth explosion, triggered by people opting against spraying their oaks, has allowed the bee population to flourish since the insecticide used is harmful to bees. We don’t spray. Life goes on.
