Description
Dutch: Oranje Tip
Latin name Anthocharis cardamines.
A butterfly in the Pieridae family.
Here he sits on the buds of a Dame’s Rocket,(Dutch: Damastbloem).
It may be that he has laid that egg below.
I waited more than half an hour, but he did not open his wings.
I have one photo from another one with open wings,
but I liked this one more.
After all the drought, it is now very wet.
Above, they like extremes, I guess :).
Wishing you a very nice Sunday further.
Thank you so much for your visit, and maybe commenting.

Een donzig lichaam, 2 antennes en redelijke grote ogen voor zo een klein wezen, vleugels vol kleuren als een kunstwerk.
