In Spanish heraldry, there are three terms for supporters: «sostenes» for objects or plants, «tenantes» for human figures, and «soportes» for animal forms. The following applies to sostenes, tenantes, and soportes. Unlike other heraldic traditions such as English heraldry, in Spanish heraldry there are no rules for the use of supporters; their use is at the armiger's discretion, without specific restrictions. Supporters are not reserved only for nobility; their use is free for all.

In the words of [Cadenas y Vicent, V. de; 1975; page 173] «there is no rule that determines the use of tenantes, soportes, and sostenes».

Kimon Andreou edits, from November 2008 to July 2015, his interesting idtg.org on heraldry, genealogy, history and other related topics.

The name and domain of this blog idtg.org are the acronyms of Kimon Andreou's own Greek motto which says:

• «Ischys Dia Tis Gnoseos»,
• in Greek «ΙΣΧΥΣ ΔΙΑ ΤΗΣ ΓΝΩΣΕΩΣ»,
• which could be translated into Castilian as «el poder del conocimiento».

This motto has led him to seek knowledge since he was young and he offers it to us with his enjoyable posts about biographies, books on heraldry, coats of arms that generate controversy, on how to design your own coat of arms (gentilitian), heraldic artists, nobility, orders of chivalry and merit, orthodox orders and many other topics that I recommend.

Party per pale Azure and Or, a tree eradicated and blasted between two starlings respectant all counterchanged.

Escudo partido de azur y oro, un árbol arrancado y deshojado del uno al otro acompañado de dos estorninos afrontados del uno en el otro.

The Spanish blazon:

• uses «del uno al otro» when the heraldic charge is over both quarters, this expression means that the charge goes from one quarter to the other quarter and in each quarter it has the tincture of the field of the other quarter, in this case, the tree, and
• uses «del uno en el otro» when there are two equal charges, one in each quarter and with the tincture of the field of the other quarter, in this case, the starlings.

In English, the heraldic term «counterchanged» is used in both cases and this coat of arms is a good example of both.
