Hi,

another picture from Satchinez Ornithological Reserv. taken yesterday (300.april.2007).
i think this if from Bombyliidae, this particular species can be seen very frequently in grass blade (specially Triticum and Avena).

can be identified?
thanks,
cosmln

Excellent photo, this is a Conophorus and looks very like virescens (Fab.) but unless confirmed from specimen append ?
