An Adonis

There’s an Adonis Blue Polyommatus bellargus on the rocks:

Then there’s one on the plants:

What an incredible colour they are. It’s the sort of colour which makes you think that there’s no way any artificial material could ever look like that.

They are such a contrast when they close their wings:

There’s still just a sliver of blue which shines through.
