My daily lepidopterological (is that a new word?) activities are truly picking up, as of yesterday.
#InMyGarden not one, not two, but three butterfly species visited me, and two of them gave me the stare: a Red Admiral and a Small White. The third one - a male Orange Tip - was too busy flitting about to look around.

A new study gives clues as to how Lepidoptera – the order of winged insects that contains butterflies and moths – have been so resilient throughout dramatic changes on Earth. Small Whites, in large numbers here later in the year, are showing great adaptability to the changing climate.

I was always expecting it - the invasion of the Small Whites, they are everywhere now, the most common butterfly (by numbers) around these parts & in other parts of the globe where they have successfully adapted to local conditions. Brassicas & other food crops (like radish, probably the Greek reference in its name ‘rapae’) beware! But the Pieris rapae does look pretty feeding on our lavender..
