Juniper Hairstreak

Found this little one on a wild flower today - I've never seen one with the brown and green. Never did see it with it's wings open. (Thanks Christine for identifying this beauty for me, you are the BEST!)

Sony DSLR-A350
1/80s f/11.0 at 30.0mm iso100 full exif

Gorgeous image!! It is a species of Hairstreak butterfly. I don't know which ones you get down your way, but this looks like a Juniper Hairstreak.
