What do you think? As you can see, it likes my buttonbush.

Another beautiful picture of a spring/summer azure, Catherine!

Buttonbushes draw in so many butterflies and bees - I love 'em!

Thanks Sherry!
So is the spring and summer azure the same butterfly? I thought it looked alot like the spring azure I posted last year.

I have this forum to thank for my having buttonbushes. I didn't even know about them until I starting reading on this forum!

Right now, around here, it seems like the 2 most popular places to be are the milkweed and the buttonbushes. I park my golf cart right in front of them and just wait with my camera. :)
