When I first saw this tiny butterfly in Sweden my initial thoughts were that it was a Small Blue (Cupido minimus) but its upperside had too much blue, and that underside hindwing had almost no spots. I then realised it was a Green-underside Blue (Glaucopsyche alexis) which is in the same genus as Large Blue (Glaucopsyche arion). But this really was a small butterfly, only marginally larger than a Small Blue. The name Green -underside comes from a flush of green at the base of the underside hindwings but this feature is variable and it isn't really visible here. Another characteristic of Scandinavian butterflies is the paucity of hindwing spots, which are usually more extensive further south in Europe. Its caterpillars feed on various vetches (members of the pea family) and it is found throughout much of Europe including southern Scandinavia. There is a single puzzling record from Torquay in Devon in September 1936. I say puzzling because this butterfly is not known to migrate and it only has one spring/summer emergence between April and July.
Very attractive small tanager of humid tropical lowlands. Found in humid evergreen forest edges, plantations, and gardens; at times with mixed-species feeding flocks of honeycreepers and euphonias. Often in pairs, feeding at all levels in fruiting trees and bushes. Note the short, curved bill. Males are a unique green-blue color with black hood and a banana yellow beak. Female resembles female Red-legged Honeycreeper but is larger, brighter, uniform green, with yellow lower bill and grayish legs.
This female was photographed in Colombia guided by Neotropic Photo Tours.

This Blue Tit and its mate (and I'm guessing some baby birds) had made their home in this metal gate post, near Warfield, Berkshire, UK.

Elaine Green is a Tasmanian artist who was the only one to directly reference the social landscape of 2020. There are 30 little landscapes here in this work entitled "April". Each one represents a scene she painted from every one of the 30 days of lock down we endured in Tasmania (thank goodness for her sake she didn't live in Victoria).
This is not the primary reason why I liked this work. I think it stands up as a great piece of work in its own right. Each little landscape a gem. [Enlarge it and see.] It was highly commended by the judges.
Here is what she says about her work:
"The thirty scenes depicted in this work reflect the thirty days in April 2020 of lockdown in Stanley Tasmania. The world had changed, helicopters flew over-head and roadblocks were erected to prevent us travelling far. No tourists came for the Easter break, the shops were all shut, the chairlift sat silent and the penguins were not visited. But the wind still blew, the rain still fell, the sun rose and set, the tide came in and out and the magnificence that is Stanley comforted my soul."
These are actually blue-green bacteria, the ones responsible for most fresh-water "algal" blooms. Here they have bloomed because of excessive use of fertilizer in the agricultural fields around the stock tank.

I'm pretty sure on the ID on this one, and I think it's the same one or one like it in yesterday's post about "The Voyeur". It was really big compared to the sexy pair and, now that I've read a bit more, could very well have taken them for a meal. It actually did change direction after the voyeur frame and appear to follow after them for a couple of frames before I lost track. Check the tucked-in legs in this image compared to the "voyeur" legs below too. Background here just the "pond".
Saw these green cliffs on the West side of Mull. No sign off the otter this morning so went back to bed for a couple of hours (I'd had a bit of a drinking session with the local fisherman last night). Was think of facing over to Inverness today but just going to stay on Mull for another day and then thinking about heading home.
