Observation date: August 20, 2024
Submitted by: Zencoyote
Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: One of our common locals, but it allowed some rather good images and showed wing/tail features I hadn’t seen before. I don’t know if that splaying of the wing surface just below the tail is a permanent structure or a movement ability, but it seems very pronounced. Weather warm, mostly clear to filmy skies.

Coordinator notes: I don't think California gets any of the similar hairstreaks that occasionally get into SE Arizona.-Ken Davenport
