Bug of the Day
Some say that moths are just nighttime butterflies, but here is an actual nighttime butterfly - a cabbage white, Pieris rapae - that I caught with the flashlight, hanging out on my joe-pye-weed. What a cute little jerk-eating-my-brassicas :-).

This white butterfly is named 'Cabbage white' because...
When they were larvae, they love to eat cabbages!

Today returning from the pharmacy, I found a butterfly on the pavement. In full sun. I took that small poor thing on hand, put him in the shade, unscrewed the bottle of green Frugo, and put him on the cap so he could drink some sweet juice. Then I put him on a leaf, but the poor guy probably didn't had the strength to hold on (their scientific name is Pieris Rapae) but anyway I saved his life, took him into the shade and gave him a drink 🙏💙 smoll lovely babe uwu

タンポポにモンシロチョウ(4月5日)。モンシロチョウはよく見かけるけれど、不規則に飛ぶばかりで、なかなか止まらないので、撮影は意外と難しい。

do you have any factoids about the pieris genus? particularly pieris rapae cuz i named my after them :) my name is pae (pronounced like the english word "pay") taken from the end of their name
unrelated thing about my name but it's unintentionally an anagram for "ape" which is fun because i'm interested in nonhuman primates
weeble for your troubles

Honestly I don't know much about them beyond what you can read on their wikipedia page! So I'm sorry I can't share any fun facts but I can share a few nice photos for you to enjoy! These are all Pieris rapae although all flutterbies in Pieris are lovely
