Large Whites and a Red Kite

Large White, Pieris brassicae
Today I joined Neil Hulme at Rewell Wood to search for Pearl-bordered Fritillaries for his BC walk tomorrow. Surprisingly we found none. There were a lot of Large Whites, some Brimstones and Green-veined Whites and a Red Admiral. Then I called in at Arundel WWT where I listened to the Whitethroat burbling away, saw a Red Kite and heard a Buzzard.
