A Flash of Blue Among the Brown

This Two-barred Flasher, Astraptes fulgerator, yesterday provided the only bit of color among dozens of brown butterflies in my garden, mostly different types of Skippers and the ever-present Carolina Satyrs here right now. I guess I could do a study in browns with so many different shades, shapes and sizes of brown butterflies, but it is easier to focus on the brighter colors like this guy’s brilliant blue! 🙂
