A beautiful Hover (thanks Paqui for identification).
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Arthropoda
Class: Insecta
Order: Diptera
Family: Syrphidae
Genus: Sphaerophoria
Species: Sphaerophoria scripta
The family sirfidae (syrphids) are very common on the flowers, they feed as adults, consume mostly nectar but pollen. The appearance of adults is almost identical to that of certain bees and wasps that are present in these environments. Another characteristic is its ability to remain almost motionless in flight, so this family is also called flies cernidoras in English "hover flies".
To distinguish a Hover of a wasp or bee have to look at the antennas, very small as in other flies, and eyes, larger than those of wasps and bees.

I've been on this in the picture relatively recently, less than 5 years. I really fond when I bought my first digital camera, the Kodak EasyShare DX6490 . At the time (I bought it in 2004) was very good. Although the function macro was not the highlight of the camera could still take pictures like this abejilla:
In its day it seemed the ultimate in sharpness. When I bought the 350D and the Canon 100mm macro lens, the sharpness really appreciated ... Regards.
Today this licénido touches the Polyommatus (Lysandra) bellargus (Rottenburg, 1775):
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Arthropoda
Class: Insecta
Order: Lepidoptera
Family: Lycaenidae
Species: Polyommatus
Species: Polyommatus (Lysandra) bellargus
This species, also known as blue girl, is certainly present in the Iberian Peninsula from 100 to 2000m. It has two generations of flight, the first of May to mid June and the second in late June to mid September. Their wings are brown with bright blue inside in case of males. Females have the classic sexual dimorphism, being totally inside of a dark brown color. It is found in dry grassy areas between the brush and an important fact is that prefers calcareous soils. The caterpillar feeds on grass of the horseshoe (Hippocrepis comosa) or Hippocrepis commutata. Like many licénidos , the larvae are attended by ants.

The first two pictures are of the male, the third of the female and, of course, the fourth of the couple. These photos are taken in Serra da da Lastra Encina .
A greeting.
In the Celtic tradition, the ferocity of the bristles makes them symbols of war. But they also have magical properties and links to the other world. Even today appears a black pig in an old tradition that continues in Wales , the day of Calan Gaeaf , in early February. In the evening bonfires are lit on the hills, touched horns and dancing. People running through the fire and each throws a stone inside. when the fire goes out, all fleeing home beyond the mysterious spirit Hwch ddu CWTA . While away, they start screaming the next song, "that everyone try to get there first and that the black sow without a tail take the hindmost." The next morning we must return, and whoever finds the stone he threw into the fire, will have a prosperous year.
Another beautiful ninfálido we visit, Argynnis (Pandoran) pandora (Denis & Schiffermüller, 1775):
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Arthropoda
Class: Insecta
Order: Lepidoptera
Family: Nymphalidae
Genus: Argynnis
Species: Argynnis (Pandoran) pandora
Large species (64-80 mm), univoltine, from mid May to August which is 200 more than two thousand feet. It can be confused with Argynnis paphia, but red on the back of the wings of Argynnis pandora is key for identification. Their wings are a brownish-orange, with a number of bands and dark brown spots. She loves to suck on thistles, clover blossoms, etc ... The caterpillar feeds on plants of violets (genus Viola sp.). It's a great flying.

As always, appreciate who I could report the species of the fly. A greeting.
This photo was not sought, is the kind that you find when you're on to something else and, not find it, decide to open your observation. It had rained the day before and on the edge stones, trickled drops of water among the mosses. They did it with a very small rate, which extended the effect. The trouble was that the stone was close to the ground and therefore the position was very forced. So without a tripod or anything, just natural light and after shooting about a hundred photos, did this you see ...
