Black-veined moth (Siona lineata) or vals witje in Dutch is a night butterfly that is active during the day. Likes chalk grassland. Has one generation per year. So delicate.

Mazarine blue (Cyaniris semiargus) or klaverblauwtje in Dutch. Has red Clover as its host plant. Pretty tiny, very pretty. I like how the leaf and the butterfly in this position are similar in their triangle shape. It was nice to spend some time together.
