Love is blind

Male copper approaches female copper:
They get talking:
He says, 'How about you and me, baby?'
She gets all in a tizzy and replies, 'But I'm a purple-edged copper and you're a sooty copper!!'
He carries on pushing his luck, but gets nowhere:
He did, in the end, give up - not long after I decided to turn the camera to 'video'. I've posted a very brief movie of the interspecific encounter here:

She seems to be pregnant anyway. I wonder what would have happened if she hadn't been.

But in this case all the action stopped shortly after I had started recording it. "La suite" was realy quite boring - the female remained and the lovelorn male fluttered around in the background composing tragic poetry in his little head. You can just see him in this brief clip:
