It's nearly impossible to capture any A. cardamines individuals when they're active before the garlic mustards start to bloom. Although they sometimes feed on the nectar of dandelions & few other plants they still show a clear preference for garlic mustard & act very hectic when they've yet to develop their blossoms.
