Cicindela sp.

  The larvae of Cicindela spp. are carnivorous. They construct funnel-shaped burrows and wait for preys with their head and pronotum visible, closing the entrance. This one in particular was found in Salreu, Aveiro, and started a very prolific day.
  The picture itself is one of the first tries with a new camera (Fujifilm HS30) and lens borrowed from a friend. I hope to finally be able to take pictures to small flies, like Hybotidae and Dolichopodidae, in the near future :-)
