In this paper we deduce some new super-congruences motivated by elliptic curves over $\Bbb F_p=\Z/p\Z$. For example, we show that if $p>3$ is a prime and $d\in\{0,1,...,(p-1)/2\}$ then $$\sum_{k=0}^{(p-1)/2}\f{\bi{2k}k\bi{2k}{k+d}}{16^k} =(\f{-1}p)+p^2\f{(-1)^d}4E_{p-3}(d+1/2)\pmod{p^3},$$ where $E_{p-3}(x)$ denotes the Euler polynomial of degree $p-3$. We also raise several new conjectures relating congruences to representations of primes by binary quadratic forms.
