I know the Large white butterfly is the bane of gardeners who like to grow their own cabbages, cauliflowers and broccoli but you can’t deny how lovely it is – or, rather, she is: the two spots and a dash on the upper forewings mean this is a female. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a Large white with such black markings before – she must be newly hatched, which means she may be from a third brood. She was simply perfect!

Perfection! I haven’t seen one for a long time – at least, I have seen white butterflies but they have all been on the wing and/or blown past by the wind.

I don’t see very many of them – perhaps because I don’t have a garden to grow vegs.
