Cabbage White on Thistle
A cabbage white butterfly with a lovely streak of yellow on its wing.
Today we take a look at some views of a cabbage white butterfly on thistle. The subject makes for a fairly soft palette of colors with little bits of bolder color thrown in.
Facing the camera at an angle the cabbage white hangs on to the thistle.
I imagine the cabbage white attempting to hunker down and hide in the thistle, though it’s really just an illusion of perspective.
Look at that long tongue of the cabbage white as it feeds on thistle nectar.
I hope you enjoyed this look at the delicate nature of the cabbage white.
