Lily Pond, Harriman St. Park
Rockland County, NY

With Alan Wells.
70º Bright sun
We had found a worn White M Hairstreak in this same location on April 20. Hopefully this will become a reliable location for this uncommon Rockland species.
The second pic shows a glimpse of the brilliant blue above, revealed for only a second as it sawed its wings.
