Red-banded hairstreak here too!

[Emmayct at cs.com]

At about 2:30 today in my Niantic garden I had my first ever Red-banded 
hairstreak.  I've been looking for one for years in my butterfly hunts and, per 
ususal, it came to me instead. It was nectaring on white buddelia.  I 
relocated it again a couple of minutes later when I came back with the camera. I 
got one lousy shot but good enough to ID.  Does anyone know if it will stick 
around?  I'm hoping to get a bettr shot tomorrow.
