Orange-tip, Anthocharis cardamines |
Yesterday afternoon
at Angmering Woods the sun suddenly beamed down at 3:30pm and I was able to
pursue two Orange-tips and a female Small White. Plenty of plants are now in
flower, including Ground-ivy, Red Campion, Herb Robert and Garlic Mustard, a
food plant of the Orange-tip. Self-heal is ready to flower. While I was creeping up
on a roosting Orange-tip a Firecrest called to complete a lovely afternoon.
