OK, proir to some thinking and what a few people said, this Orange-Tip larvae hatching out would be better. I spent 4 hours in this area and looked around and this I found really hard to get, one of the most difficult yet. The wind was blowing the cuckoo flowers about too:

Next year, I hope for a better shot of this and the larvae.
