Pine Whites have inflitrated us...LOL
Was working on my laptop and glanced out my window only to realize that the neighbors Pine tree was "alive" with little white butterflies!
Got a close up of one...if not mistaken these are "Pine Whites(Neophasia menapia)...

What a lovely image. Very nice composition. I have to agree with your ID. Very good work. I've been really short on butterflies here.

Re: Pine Whites have inflitrated us...LOL
Here too......I did some research and found out that they were laying eggs on the Pines...that is why they were only on a few trees and coming and going from there.
Of course that neighbor thought I was nuts! And he was outside pulling weeds, and never even noticed them. (I was about half a football field away and saw them!) After I asked if I could take some pictures...he looked up at the tree and said...."Well, what do you know. Sometimes we forget to see the little things"...I said, "Mother Nature will reward you if you but only open your eyes." So.........yep, he thought I was nuts!

Re: Pine Whites have inflitrated us...LOL
Let them think what they like. I'm sure that the garden center people that I asked about taking caterpillars off of their plants thought I was a few cards short of a full deck too. I look at it this way. Our maker gave us senses to use and a glorious world to use those senses in. What a waste not to do so.

So long as no one tries making me into nut butter of any kind then I'm okay with being nutty.

No cracking or roasting of the nuts either. The best that I might do is come out of my shell from time to time.

I can't disagree with that. Hopelessly cracked.
