Glaucopsyche alexis is increasing but still a rare spring species in Belgium only found in the very south of the country. It's not too critical on larval foodplant, several Fabaceae will do. In S Europe it's common so climate will be one of the limiting factors in 🇧🇪

Forget 'Blue' Monday! Today we're celebrating #BlueBugs with the stunning Small Blue (Cupido minimus) 💙🦋
With a wingspan up to 30mm, it is the UK's smallest resident butterfly.
This friendly individual was filmed by Species on the Edge Officer Tracy Munro.

The blue form of the Parent Bug (Elasmucha grisea) gives us something to look forward to!

Red Admiral (Vanessa atalanta) © Jon Dunn
What comes after the #BlueBugs of #BlueMonday? Surely it has to be the red representatives of #RubyTuesday? 😉
Already this year there have been reports of sightings of Red Admiral in the UK. Have you seen one yet?

A Blue Dasher dragonfly looking squarely toward the camera. It has black legs and a white face with blue highlights and mostly clear wings.
One of the best bugs to get to know is the Blue Dasher #dragonfly. It’s exceptionally confiding. And fun to watch as it often jostles with bigger dragonflies. This female has delicate blue features on the front of her face. #BlueMonday #BlueBugs

Photo of a pinned tropical moth, aquamarine in color.
Pyraloid moths aren't into blue so much, but this Parotis sp. from Indonesia is a delicate aquamarine. Parotis prasinalis in Madagascar looks similar. Specimen in the Florida State Collection of Arthropods / FLMNH McGuire Center. #BlueBugs

Light blue beetle with small black spots scattered across it
One of my favorite beetles - Blue Fungus Beetle (Cypherotylus californicus), which were really common in Colorado in the right habitat. #BlueMonday #BlueBug #bugs #bluebugs

macro photo of a taupe damselfly with a bit of white under their torso and at their tale tip. their eyes and front of their face are vibrant turquoise blue. they are perched on a think vertical stick and their wings are spread out to their sides.
Bringing a special POP! of Blue to #BlueMonday is the California Spreadwing Damselfly (Archilestes californicus)
I didn't even know spreadwing damsels existed until I moved into The Albatross!
