Chauliognathus marginatus
These small soldier beetles seem to have quite adventurous sex lives & there was quite an orgy underway here with up to half a dozen beetles involved at one point!
Woodland edge
Sorry for the poor quality but these were taken in very low light & are not as crisp as I would like.
