My garden safari continues. I caught these green shield bugs inflagrante delicto on the Laurel bush at the end of my garden - thankfully once coupled together they aren't so quick to run away, so managed to get a focussed shot or two!

Crocodile lizard (Shinisaurus crocodilurus) from Guangxi Daguishan Crocodile Lizard National Nature Reserve, China.
After copulating with the corpse the male vigorously attacked the body by pecking, kicking and yanking the head up.

Was lucky enough to observe the mating process between two golden orb web spiders. Note the huge size difference between the male (smaller) and female.
The male is seen on the underside of the female, using its specialized, swollen palp to fertilise the female.
Usually the males have to be very careful to avoid being eaten by the female; and they usually prefer to "sneak" in while the female is eating. This particular male is rather brave! :D

We returned to the nest at about 10:15 AM and Jewel was standing rather high in the nest. Pride had moved down the limb to be very close to the nest. Suddenly they started calling mutually and Pride flew to the nest and they copulated, maintaining cloacal apposition for about 7 seconds, as captured by my photo times. This is the first time I have seen any eagles copulate on the nest when eggs were assumed to be present. The previous pair were seen copulating on the nest while building/restoring the nest, but generally copulated on tree limbs or the Melaleuca snags. No one has yet reported copulation this season, which is rather unusual, as the week leading up to laying the first egg is said to be when they coplulate most frequently. Of course we also see them copulating after the chicks hatch but do not remember any reports during the 5 week incubation period. Perhaps readers who have closely monitored the eagle nest cams can add their observations on this point.

In its pre-copulation display, the male American Avocet preens himself with water, gradually gaining intensity to the point of frenzied splashing just before mating with the female. After mating, the pair intertwines their necks with their bills crossed and runs forward. The pair stays together for a single breeding season.
They were linked up for five minutes in the inlet off Morro Rock. Now I know what those bloody noses are all about. Morro Bay, California.
