Any clues as to what this tiny butterfly might be? It is so ragged, I can't really tell what it is. I am thinking it might be a female Eastern Tailed-Blue. That's the closest one in my Butterflies of GA guide. I never did see it with wings open. It is sitting on a blade of crabgrass in my buckwheat patch.
