Strymon melinus
One tail on hindwing. Upperside blue-gray with large red spot near tail. Underside of spring/fall form is dark gray, summer form is paler gray. Relatively straight postmedian line is white, bordered with orange on the inside edge.
On rosemary flowers in wildlife habitat yard on Belton Lake.
It was a cool, windy, but sunny day and a dozen or more Gray Hairstreaks were all over the rosemary.
