A rescue

A few weeks ago I found a load of larvae of both the Small and Large white on the cabbages at work. I quickly collected them together and took them home,   and this is the result, beautiful small white butterflies. I must confess I was very surprised at the speed at which the butterflies eclosed, they must have only been in the pupa for a week or so.
Needless to say we had a little photo shoot before I deposited her safely on the buddleia in the garden.
