Summer Azure

Terrible photo, but good enough for a positive ID.

A new-to-me species, so add it to that list, but not to the 2024 list because this was photographed in Ohio, not at home.

Gah! Not new-to-me…

I like it. So unusual to see two in line

Wonderful! You've been busy shooting or uploading or both.

@marlboromaam We were gone for three weeks: two weeks to see the kids-and-grandkids, and then the week to Montana. So I've been trying to catch up! :-\

Good to see something new.
