The Summer Azure Butterfly

Hello all,

In the early evening, my daughter and I were looking at our veggies and we came across a pair of beautiful, small, light blue butterflies. They were frolicking all over one of our beds.

We had never seen this type of butterfly before, so we did a Google Images search and came across this from the Butterflies of the World Foundation:

They were so precious to see. I hope they had a chance to visit our tomato flowers!!

Happy gardening~

very nice...I planted a butterfly garden this year (coreopsis, liatris, milkweeds, coneflowers, etc.) and have yet to see much activity...I am seeing a tiny blue butterfly but I need to learn exactly what it is.

I've seen a single honey bee...no bumble bees yet.
