I’d written not too long ago about a little winged insect in the backyard garden which I thought was a checkered skipper. At the time, I didn’t get a good photo of the wings when they were open. Well, guess who visited today after the rainfall? It was fluttering around the catnip.

The color of the fuzzy body and base of the wings was a dusty blue. Is it weird to want to cuddle an insect? I did a quick search of the latin name (Pyrgus communis) to make sure this was indeed the same species. Everything checks out!
