This image of #AdonisBlue male on its larval food plant, locally abundant #HorseshoeVetch was taken along the Purbeck coastal path in May 2025.
Due 2 severe drought this summer, this vetch has wilted w result that next May's generation will be seriously depleted as will the next one.

One Morning, Three Wings of Blue
Adonis Blue — a breath of sky resting on wild leaves.
Three frames of silence, where light remembers how to fly.

This is the #Adonisblue #Polyommatus bellargus #butterfly. The #insect is an incredible glowing blue, and seeing them in life (in France) was an amazing treat. This #sciart #naturalscienceillustration was completed for a #packagingdesign on chinaware

Morning Encounter: Adonis Blue & Sea Holly
There is a unique magic in the early morning hours when nature rests in total stillness. An Adonis Blue butterfly resting on the spiky bloom of a Sea Holly, catching the very first rays of sunlights.

Adonis Blue Polyommatus bellargus, from the family Lycaenidae.

I was lucky enough to see several of these beauties down in Sussex several years ago.
