White on White

This little butterfly led me on a merry chase this morning before it finally decided to pose in the yarrow.  Then it posed, and posed, and posed!  I got shots from almost every direction.  I don't know what it is - I'll leave that to some of you who know these things.  Seems like someone once said they were cabbage moths.    Diane

From the side view, I'd say a Cabbage White? Looks like it has the black spots on the wings like a Cabbage White, though it's hard to be sure without an open wing shot. Beautiful capture Diane!!
