This could be a southern small white (pieris mannii) at Kos island. Not sure about that.

You have good reasons to be "not sure": https://butterfly-conservation.org/butterflies/southern-small-white

Don't grow up, it's a trap. Stay young at heart.

​

You got it very right! And BTW "older at heart" will not spend that money just to run after birds/wild life!

 

[ISv]

Thank you very much! But I hope you will stay yourself and continue to develop your own skills
I think, it has a lot to do with patience and developing an eye for the right moment.

Be careful when posting your advises - you have no idea whom you are posting!
On other hand: "and continue to develop your own skills" is useful for any age - here you are on the spot!

Well - I just remembered what I told to my daughter 5-6 years ago: "Some are getting older and smarter, others are getting just older"!

I don't know, how much humour is in your post.
I think I don't post anything top secret. I would call it common sense (I know, it's not that common any more to have and use sense).
And I appreciate the help people are giving here. So why not give something in return...

 

[Maximilian]

Its too late for me, I am probably older than most here and still have not grown up LOL

It's never too late to learn or try something new. And as @Click said, stay young at heart.
Of course bungee might be not good for arthrosis

Any better idea?

Skippers are also common at Kos, Greece.
If I had to make a guess, I'D say it's a large skipper (ochlodes sylvanus).
If someone knows better, please let me know.

So true !

I send you a link! You can draw your own conclusions. My conclusion is female Large White - since you are asking...

You probably don't realise how senior, but not senile, some of us are here, and still young at heart!
