Sorry for the image heavy post, I tried to cut down the numbers, but still ended up with 12. I guess I was quite lucky (after several trips and several hours of waiting) to find this pair mating in good light. Also I'm sorry for watching. photographing and posting their private moments. All shot with Mechanical shutter to avoid any possible distortion from ES, each time I went there I was hoping for some good action and kept the camera in mechanical shutter mode, finally it happened exactly a week after Valentines day!
