This Cabbage White butterfly kept disappearing into the foliage.  This is a "grab shot" over which I had very little control, shooting between leaves.  In flight, they appear white.  In repose, there is a hint of the black spots on the upper side of the wings. The color is straight from the Olympus E-1.

Sure that's a Cabbage White? Not some sort of Sulfur?

The black spots on the ones I've photographed are clearly visible and defined on the underside. <http://zone-10.com/tope2/main.php?g2_itemId=17816>

Even when a bit yellowish on the bottom, the spots are clear.

The hints of upper wing patterns here are different. No experience in your neck of the woods, but the above are true here and in Maine.
