Plebejus icaroides 'Boisduval's Blue'

Hawk Creek Falls, Lincoln County, Washington

Note the ant touching the abdomen of the butterfly. This happened repeatedly while I watched. Multiple butterflies would land on the buds (not the open blossoms), an ant would move to it and touch it and the butterfly would take off, circle and land on a different bud.
