Eastern Tailed-Blue (Everes comyntas) on False Sunflower

Tiny little butterflies with the males being a glorious blue when they open their wings.

They are hyperactive and rarely sit still long at the start of the season.

The False Sunflowers are just beginning to bloom.

EXPLORED !

HaarFager ^club

Excellent shot, Pam! But this is a Gray Hairstreak, not an Eastern Tailed Blue. Eastern Tailed Blues are half the size of Gray Hairstreaks. Compare:

Eastern Tailed Blue

Pam J ^club has replied to HaarFager ^club

May be... I have both here and the ones here are practically identical... but the upper wing which is never shown when stationary fits the Eastern and also the size fits the Eastern... not the Gray.

HaarFager ^club has replied to Pam J ^club

I have seen, for lack of a better word, "pygmy" Gray Hairstreaks which have been the size of a typical Eastern Tailed Blue in my area.
