celestrina

this is not my photo. i didn't have my camera with me when i went outside the other morning to pick clover for littlefoot's breakfast. but i looked at it carefully and imprinted the image in my mind to look it up later on the computer.

what i saw was a celestrina ladon, aka spring azure butterfly. i am blessed.

photo lifted from wikipedia, which labels it thusly:
Male, Cougar Mountain Regional Wildland Park, Washington, United States
