SMALL OR GREEN VEINED WITE ID HELP NEEDED

Post by Devon Dave »

Hi all,
a warm sunny day in Devon at last,
got my first Orange tip of the year and a very brief glimpse of my first White of the year. Just landed on a Dandelion,then to a Celandine , I got a couple of shots before it was off over the hedge. It was so fleeting I did not get a chance to see its underside so not certain if it was a Green Veined White as I suspected or a Small White. Any experts out there could confirm which species of White for my records,
























9thanks.
