@mellielong, I need your help! Today I saw this little hairstreak, but it didn't look like the usual ones. Could it possibly be a Dusky-blue Groundstreak? I'm saying that because of the orange stripe on the top wing. If so, it will be my first sighting of this species.

And another first! Remember I posted a photo of the White-striped Longtail butterfly - but it didn't have tails. Well, this one did!!!! I got so excited!
