Lycaeides melissa samuelis
This little guy was so tiny I could barely see him/her. However, the bright blue as it flew caught my attention. I never did get a good flight photo. Over the last 100 years, this species has declined by 99% and was federally listed as endangered in 1992. The United States Fish and Wildlife Service currently has remaining populations listed as stable.
