This sighting breaks my old personal late record for Cabbage White, as the latest Cabbage White I ever saw in Victoria was on November 1st.  I believe the mild and rainy weather we’ve been having coupled with the few sunny breaks is the main reason for that. I’m almost sure that there are other Cabbage Whites around – one just has to be around at the right time. I like checking around 12:45 pm to just past 1 pm.  In past experience I found the Capital City Allotment Gardens on Kent Road and the Martindale valley are worth checking because of vegetables still growing there.
