Hayhurst's Scallopwing male butterfly (Staphylus hayhurstii)

A Hayhurst's Scallopwing male butterfly (Staphylus hayhurstii) nectaring on False Sunflowers

I submitted this one for verification to BAMONA and had verification and they only verified Hayhurst's and not Mazan's because the Mazan's would have bee well outside its range.

Its ironic... I have seen very few butterflies at all here so far this year !!

Wow, that's a gorgeous Scallopwing and nice capture of it as well! It's always nice to find one that has strayed a little too far and shows up for a surprise.
