butterfly on the ground

I love the way this butterfly looks next to the bare ground and twigs.  So blue and black against the brown.  I got one photo in before it flew way.  What a joy it was to see as I was waiting for Edd to get off the bus.  Late summer may be hot but it's still a very special time of the year with school starting the days starting to get shorter and fall just around the corner.
