Spring Azure? -
Celastrina
Block Island, Washington County, Rhode Island, USA
May 4, 2017
From the date of sighting I would think that this is a Spring Azure - Celastrina ladon. ID confirmation or correction much appreciated.

Probaly C. ladon
but the taxonomy of eastern Celastrina is currently a mess and hopefully an expert will id to species.
