Little Blue

You can chase a butterfly all over the field and never catch it. But if you sit quietly in the grass it will come and sit on your shoulder. ~ unknown

This Eastern Tailed-Blue butterfly is just over an inch wide. I don't normally do too much editing, but for this I did etsooi (mainly the background) so it would fit in my red, white and blue month.
