Happy Thursday and Groundhog Day!  From the weather forecast it looks like Spring will be here already this weekend, in the 50s.  Today is still winter though.  Made we think warm thoughts and so this butterfly I captured last August fit just right.  This is a Grey Hairstreak also known as a Cotton Square Borer when young that I was able to photograph in the garden.  They are tiny little things, only about an inch across when viewed like this.  They can be very skittish and hard to get close to but sometimes I get lucky.
