Butterflies

Hello my friends.

I'm not a wizard or a magician, I'm just learning to be one.

Spring has come to our region early this year, but development is very slow. But maybe it's just my imagination. On Sunday, I was walking along a small river and noticed white butterflies that were actively flying along the path I was walking along. They only sat on yellow dandelion flowers. But there were no other colors around me. This is such a spring feature this year. Flowers develop slowly.



It seems to me that this is a hawthorn butterfly. Of course, I may be wrong, but it seems to me that this is exactly such a butterfly.
This butterfly is very fond of fruit plants - apple trees, pears, plums, hawthorn, etc. More precisely, the leaves of these trees like to eat larvae, caterpillars of this butterfly. The butterfly lays eggs on the lower part of the leaf, from which larvae appear and they begin to eat the leaves.
But now there are almost no leaves on the trees in the garden and the butterflies are gaining strength to lay eggs.
