Acmon Blue

Plebejus acmon

Description:

Many of these hatch at once in the mid-spring on the hill above my house. By reflection, their wings exhibit a distinctly "blue" tone but what I like best are their black and white striped antennae. I can just picture a fairy riding one!

Habitat:

Meadows, dry hills
