Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: Sunny warm spring day in GA. Cleaning out Father in laws barn, which sits next to woods. The barns property consists of the house, 3 ponds, lots of woods and a creek.
We were taking a break when all of a sudden this little blue butterfly was scanning the ground. The flight pattern was erratic. It finally landed and I went to talk to it. I put my finger down and it climbed aboard. It went to my thumb and stayed there, I gather eating salts, for a good ten minutes. I put it on my shoulder where it ate for another 10 min then flew away. He’s not from around here. I’ve never seen one like it here in GA.
