Thanks for the correction. This particular one I only took a single picture before it flew. Usually I take one picture from a distance then try to get a bit closer and use manual focus. The lens I used for this is 6' minimum at 300mm (12x) which I use for birds. These whites hardly stop moving! When there are lots of both species as there were later it is impossible to tell if you are photographing the same one! I will add 4 more to the other Small White spotting which I have not worked out which I think they are so you can take a look. They will be here http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/208506030 shortly.
This one is another Pieris napi. Do you have other pictures?
