Orange-tip bonanza

Orange-tip, Anthocharis cardamines female

As it was a sunny day yesterday I visited Rewell Wood  to check for Pearl-bordered Fritillaries, but they were not out. I then headed for my favourite Orange-tip site - the Angmering Estate woods. There were plenty around, including several females, plus male Brimstones, a Comma and a Green-veined White.
