Butterfly

flower to flower

beauty hard to see, blinking

grey hairstreak, flitting

At just about an inch tall, the grey hairstreak is difficult to appreciate fully, because it rarely sits still for more than a second. I feel lucky that this one must’ve really been enjoying this daisy. It gave me just enough time to snap a pic before flitting off again.
