Ruddy Hairstreak at NABA-IBP - Electrostrymon hugon

Ruddy Hairstreak at NABA-IBP - Electrostrymon hugon
North American Butterfly Association's International Butterfly Park, Hidalgo County, Texas, USA
November 22, 2008
I was at work at Bentsen-RGV SP but got a cell phone call from some butterfly chasers (I think maybe Phil and Joanne Kelly from Indiana?) that this critter, which I had never seen, was just down the road at NABA-IBP, so spent my lunch break over there checking it out.
