  9. Nuptial Gift from male Robber Fly (Holcocephala fusca)
One of the funniest nature scenes I have seen, the female (above) was entertained eating a fly and the male (obvious, below) triyng to start the mating, or at least the scene looked this way, correct if I’m wrong… She denied some times with the rear legs :P
