COMMON BLUE BUTTERFLY

From the walk along the Salini Salt Pans some weeks ago.
I don’t think it is that common in Malta because I haven’t seen any around except this one. Not sure of the name, too, not much blue there.
Thank you very much for your looks, for your comments and for the fav's.

Lovely capture and composition.
This is the underwing of the common blue. The upper wing is blue. In Maltese it is called "Farfett tal-Anglu" (lit the angel's butterfly).

You were clearly lucky to spot it! Is there a local authority or similar you could send your photo to? Could be of interest.
