EDITORS COMMENTS
Love is in the Air. . . and on the Menu! Robber flies (Asilidae) show us how to spice up their romance with a twist of predation. In this print captured by Christian Ziegler, we witness an extraordinary moment of passion and survival in The Peloponnese, Greece. These daring dipteran lovers have taken their courtship game to new heights as they engage in a mid-air copulation dance. But wait, there's more! One of them has managed to snag a delicious insect prey for dinner while keeping the flames of love burning strong. It's like watching an exhilarating WWE match where these agile insects showcase their acrobatic skills while simultaneously satisfying their hunger. Talk about multitasking! The picturesque backdrop of Greece adds an enchanting touch to this vertical display of affection and predation. Who knew that such tiny creatures could create such drama? So next time you're feeling adventurous, take inspiration from these robber flies - embrace your wild side, find love in unexpected places, and never forget to enjoy a good meal together!
