I just spotted this tiny fella outside on the doorframe. He or she is about 1cm long. Canon 30D + 100mm macro lens, 270EX flash on C bracket. |

Maybe a Platycheirus albimanus (female)...but just guessing as usual.  |

Looks like a correct ID by my friend Rogerita. But the picture is not very good... It is a Platycheirus, that is sure. PS: 1 cm is NOT tiny  |
