Looks like a gray hairstreak. I posted one of these back in April.

When I saw you post this in the closest to 5 thread, I just assumed that it was for the "road sign" challenge. So much for assumptions! (I skipped "authority" as I had no clue or guts to enter.)

It's a funny pic and a funny title. The quibbles could be qualmed with some different post-processing (though those may not have been available to you during the challenge). I like photos of signs. I think they're very collectible. Though they are often static subjects, your interesting background with its textures and the sky with simple clouds transcends the usual humdrum.

(thanks for playing)

Surprised this has not gotten any comments. Great clarity and the composition is different than the norm. It has a softness to it but still maintains clarity. I like it.

A little to busy I think. Colours doesn't work well together. Sharp and well defined.
