Today afternoon I spent in a hang-out with a very friendly small fellow. I believe his name was Reverdin's blue (Lat. Plebejus argyrognomon), but I'm not 100% sure!
I'm not an expert for butterflies, all my knowledge about them is very small. Sometimes it's very difficult to determine the type of a butterfly. In Lycaenidae family, which fellow from the photo belongs , there are 55 other species (at least in my country), and the differences between them are minimal: color shades, pattern of dots, etc.

It was a sunny and warm day, but also wind blew. These are the most favorable circumstances if you want to catch the butterfly without any great effort. Usually butterfly clings to the grass stem, and if you gently bring your hand near to him, it will climb on your hand or finger without much opposition.
After a while, I wanted to put it down on some of the many plants, but that was the hardest part of the job. I laughed, it seemed like he liked staying on my hand!
