The visiting butterfliers have left and we had a cold spell and butterflies have not been up to much. But we had strong southerly winds today ahead of a cold front and I had my hopoes up. It didn't bring in a lot but this worn Marius Hairstreak was a first for our yard at Progreso Lakes, #127. I'm hoping that the wing is "smudged" enough to turn it into a Smudged Hairstreak but so far there are no takers on my Facebook post.
It was so silvery I was thinking about Pearly-gray Hairstreak but the gray eyes make it a Rekoa and the most common one by far is marius.
