![Gold Star Critiquer/Silver Workshop Editor/Gold Note Writer [C: 194 W: 16 N: 618]](http://i1.treknature.com/misc/g-s-g.gif) (2530) | Hi Folks , todays upload is of a Western tailed blue , it gains this name from the small hair like tails on the ends of its wings , although very similar to a feature of the Hairstreaks , behavioral studies indicate that this is a True Blue butterfly.
the under side of the wing is very pale , marked with black spots , at the rear of the wing there is a very distinctive marking of orange silver and black spots (see workshop).
this butterfly is fairly common to see from mid May to August , typically see at forest edges or in grassy clearings.
thanks for stopping in
regards
