おもしろい事実
Only the male orange-tip butterfly has bright orange wing tips; females are mostly white!
Orange-tip caterpillars are cannibalistic and will eat smaller siblings if food is scarce.
Their mottled green wing undersides are made of overlapping yellow and black scales, not green pigment!
These butterflies emerge early in spring, often being one of the first to be seen fluttering about.
