Large whites were the most common butterflies spotted in the UK this year with a record number of sightings, more than doubling from last year's Big Butterfly Count. Recognisable by their creamy white wings with black L-shaped markings, they are also commonly referred to as cabbage butterflies or cabbage whites due to their staple diet. Their numbers are up 47% over the past 15 years Photograph: Keith Warmington/Butterfly Conservation
