Wood White Quest

The ongoing search by me and some of my friends to find the elusive Wood White at Powerstock Common continued again at the weekend. Not photographed at the site since 2012, there are fears within my group of friends that the colony may have died out. This delicate and enigmatic little butterfly is a joy to stumble across, and favours clearings, and dis-used railway lines. The photographs below are taken in 2011, and 2012 respectively.

    Nice images Frank, let's hope this isn't the last sighting of them locally though.
