Purity of the Adonis.

These male adonis blue butterflies are tiny but they shine like precious jewels in the grasses, warming themselves up for the day's flirting on the wing.

Scientific name: Polyommatus bellargus, a long name for something so tiny! Make him big, click here. ( Maybe yesterday's brown butterfly was a female adonis - thanks for spotlighting her)

The butterfly season continues in our village despite the cool overnight temperatures.
