I’ve read that besides their voracious appetite for aphids, Ladybugs have an average of 400 different sex partners over their lifetime. Besides Ladybug love, many other insects were pollinating the flowering plants at Desert Harbor Retreat.

Sex in the Desert at Desert Harbor
Off Center & Not Even 
Great photos, such naughty bugs!
Thanks! The birds and the bees without the birds;)
They are definitely touching each other’s tralalas.
The ladybugs are quite mild compared to the video.
I don’t know… insect copulation is pretty violent, generally.
I haven’t followed insect copulation.
Those are some great bug photos, Timothy! I don’t know if you have heard of this group, but they are dedicated to the conservation of invertebrate species and their habitat: http://www.xerces.org/
Thanks, Lavinia. I have heard of the group, but haven’t really looked into them. Thanks for the reminder.
