OT: you Brits should look round for Bath Whites this year. Since they're recently surprisingly numerous in Central Europe, especially at abandoned mining sites and various sandy biotopes, there might be migrants. I hope it might be a good tip for a person living in the southern coastal area.

observer was Chris Glanfield.
Would loved to catch up with one of these but seems an impossible task. Reports are usually from gardens and emerge a day or two later. At least one has laid eggs lending us some hope!
