Coordinator notes: Your suggested ID is correct for the 1st photo which I verify here...the second photo however is Boisduval's Blue (Icaricia icaroides)...has dark, narrow forewing border and slight spots at the margin of the hindwing...the male Silvery has only a thin black line at the forewings and hindwings (sort of wall-to-wall, all blue).
