Although a trip was planned, the weather turned out to be wayy to windy/stormy and cloudy than initially anticipated, which is why I decided to do something else, instead. While my mother was outside to discard some old glass, she spotted a butterfly at our neighbor's butterfly bush she assumed to be V. cardui. Because it's quite rare in our area, I joined her to document it but quickly noticed that what she saw was not V. cardui but A. urticae – this species was last observed in June, 2023.

Meanwhile, one pupae of V. atalanta and both P. rapae still need to hatch. The latter species continues to strive among our cauliflowers, as multiple new eggs were discovered in the previous days. Because the cauliflowers aready look pretty terrible, it thus is unlikely that they'll attract P. brassicae.
