Vail, AZ ~ Sycamore Community Park Butterflies

After watching the birds this morning, I decided I would ge to the community park to see if there were any birds or butterflies around.  I didn't see many birds but there were plenty of butterflies to be seen.  Like the rest of AZ the butterflies don't seem to set down and nectar so you can get images of them.  There were several areas of puddling noted with Ceraunus Blue, Marine Blue and Reakirt's Blue's all mixed together.  There were 10-12 species of butterflies seen.

Reakirt's Blue, Marine Blue & Ceraunus Blue's puddling at several spots.
