Cabbage Lady Butterfly

During our visit to Sunnyvale WTP and searching for birds, we spotted this beautiful, white Butterfly. There must have been hundreds of them flitting around like little white ballerinas. We were excited to see the wildlife making an early Fall return. We saw many types of butterflies and followed this one until she finally lighted. Pieris rapae, also known as the Cabbage Butterfly, is a white small- to medium-sized butterfly. The male and female differ as the female has two black spots and the male only one.
