Gray Hairstreak, Common Hairstreak
Strymon melinus
-
These photos show a gray hairstreak resting on a hardhack leaf (Spiraea douglasii) in a riparian along the Willard Spring Trail in Conboy Lake National Wildlife Refuge.........August 17, 2007. This species seemed to be attracted to the bloom of bugleweed (Lycopus asper) at this time.
