lincolnuni_ecology's Identifications

I observed many cabbage butterflies flying over and pollinating on pink clovers. The paddock the clovers were in must have been about 70x140 meters. It was Lincoln farmland. I observed about 20-40 cabbage butterflies among this plant.

Many Cabbage butterflies were landing/pollinating on this thistle. Although i couldn't manage to capture the butterfly on the thistle in the photo, i observed about 15 cabbage butterflies land on this thistle within the 20minute observation time

9-12 Pieris rapae butterflies seen in private garden in Lincoln.
No counts of larval host plants present.
Activity- Observed visiting most regularly:
Catnip, Petunia, Sage and Cosmos flowers.
Often seen in groups of 2-3

Found on a hot sunny day up the Makikihi River. The river was completely dried up. There were many white butterflies flying around in the area but this is the only white butterfly I saw on white clover as the plant wasn't very abundant.
