@Christel: I live in an area that has many trees and some prairie. These butterflies enjoy living in the forest. Many of them live in my back yard!
Ich lebe in einem Gebiet, das viele Bäume und einige Prärie hat. Diese Schmetterlinge das Leben in den Wald. Viele von ihnen leben in meinem Hinterhof!
(I used Google translate for this - please tell me if it is really bad!)

@Veronelle: One would think so but the fall flowers are blooming here and the butterfly migrations have started.

@Ricardo: The sulphurs (cabbage butterflies) are migrating southward to eat more cabbages... including the whites... I might have a photo coming up!
