Day 186 (special event): I took these two photos a couple of days ago, and have been waiting for identification assistance from BugGuide.net. The Azures are fairly difficult to tell apart, definitely not a species for amateurs such as myself. The experts have given their confirmation: this lovely blue butterfly bears the enchanting name of Celastrina echo echo, the Pacific Azure. It is a new species for my butterfly Life List. That's a pretty good way to start out the butterfly season!
