 This tiny fly was flying and descending to briefly touching the anthers of the stamens of the Trachelium caeruleum flowers, to feed I guess.

Taken in Fornes (Granada) at 900 m.a.s.

I have just received the very sad news that Peter Chandler has died after a fall at home yesterday. I have no other details at the moment. We shall miss him terribly.

I will try to fix the messages this month. We have to make some other configuration changes before software goes out of support at end of year.
