Mating fire bugs - Pyrrhocoris apterus - 3 pictures

Hi all,

This morning I found a big group of firebugs. Tried to get some pictures, but these guys are pretty fast. As soon as they see something moving they scrurry away under their stones and rocks. So grrrr....

But then I spotted them two mating ones. And apparently when you're locked together like they are, you're not so fast anymore! :)

So here you are: 3 pics of f*cking firebugs :p
