Pieris napi at Rixton Claypits

Uploader's Comments

At least twenty species of butterfly now breed on site. Thanks to Jonathan Kington and http://www.ukbutterflies.co.uk/species.php?species=napi , I believe this to be a mating pair of Green-veined White butterflies (Pieris napi) with the female nearest the camera.
