I know what you mean, Nuthatch. I always find that yellow ones go in the opposite direction

Wel into the first week of may and still no SBF. Frankly I'm concerned
A couple of Orange Tips and Large Whites did turn up though

! Frankly, I would be concerned too

The opposite problem obtains in my garden - the preponderation of SBFs is actively preventing access to Brimstones, Large Whites and assorted types which should be prevalent at this date.

A good day for Butterflies in the chateau garden today. Orange Tips, Large Whites and Holly Blues in abundance plus a solitary Speckled Wood.
