Sometimes ...

They are.

As with this Spring Azure. I'm not sure why it landed on my glove. I don't think there are any salts to be had there. But maybe.

And cool.

Spring Azure is actually a complex of species and subspecies all across the United States. As this comment from the link above notes, "All it takes for a spirited argument are 2 taxonomists and 1 azure."

So even when the butterfly lands on me there are still questions to exactly what species it is.
