A Swollen-Thighed Beetle (Oedemera nobilis), which I call Popeye. It's difficult to take these kinds of photographs in agricultural and livestock areas, and you have to resort to land belonging to various infrastructures such as roads, canals, and railways to be able to do so—land that needs to be environmentally protected.
Un escarabajo metálico de fémur grueso (Oedemera nobilis), a los que llamo Popeye. Es difícil hacer este tipo de fotografías en zonas agrícolas y ganaderas, y hay que recurrir a los terrenos pertenecientes a las distintas infraestructuras como carreteras, canales, ferrocarriles para poderlas hacer, terrenos que es necesario proteger ambientalmente.
