Day 305: Pieris marginalis is a plain butterfly, its only real distinguishing feature being the dark leading edge of the forewing. A member of the family of Cabbage Whites, this pale beauty prefers shady, cool areas and are often the most early to be spotted in the Spring. This particular specimen preferred Hawkweed to Horseradish as a landing zone, although it tried the latter repeatedly.
