Spring azure

Our first butterfly photo of the season at FWG comes courtesy of Jeewa who saw this pretty little azure. Although you can't tell when the wings are close, it gets its name from the brilliant blue of the wings when open. Seeing these butterflies flitting along is like seeing flashes of blue appearing and disappearing in front of your eyes. Silvery blues, summer azures and eastern tailed blues are the other two very similar "blues" in this area.
