Gray Hairstreak

Strymon melinus

Description:

It was windy and this one had to open the wings for balance. This allow you to see the iridescent blue and dark grey upper wings. The tails and striped antenna are also visible, as is the white fringe on the edge of the wings.

Notes:

This one was feeding with others including skippers and orange sulphurs on Shasta daisy, Leucanthum.
