Gray Hairstreak [Filler] by rhoing

Gray Hairstreak [Filler]

This is one of those butterflies that looks totally different "above" and "below." The bottoms of the wings are light-blue, as here, https://365project.org/rhoing/365/2017-09-03 Above, the wings are dark, well, gray. :)

ID’ed at BAMONA as “Strymon melinus” or “Gray Hairstreak”; https://www.butterfliesandmoths.org/sighting_details/1148133
