Cabbage white (Pieeris rapae) on Liatris

Nectaring on the liatris, this cabbage white was oblivious to my presence, so was able to get a couple of photos. In a typical year, we might see 8 to 10 or more during any visit to the garden in summer, but not this year. As with most butterfly species (though not all), populations are not as vigorous this year.
