Will you please help me ID this butterfly. I think it is some type of Hairstreak. This picture was taken on Sapelo Island, GA on May 21, 2008. Thanks,

Hi Lee,
The angle of view makes exact identification difficult for novices like us, but we believe this is a Southern Hairstreak, Satyrium favonius, as evidenced by an image posted to BugGuide.
