Hello Mike,
Another beautiful African pierid with excellent colours and very clear delineation of the wing venation and coloration. Very good composition, showing enough of the background to get a good feel for the riverbank location where he is taking fluids and salts. I'm guessing a male, because female pierids would usually have darker markings in Europe or SE Asia. Is the same true in Africa? Cheers
Alan
