    I am endlessly amazed by Lycaenids over here. It seems that every month I find a different species. Plus, it helps that there's a mad genius on inaturalist who identifies them all! Posted 2 years ago, modified 2 years ago

      The dark ones with highlights are especially wonderful. Posted 2 years ago

        Yes!
        And it was only this year, by paying more attention to these, that I encountered the Callophyrs that we have in Europe, which I'd never seen before even though they are clearly quite common throughout southern France!         Posted 2 years ago
