Young and determined - a photo on Flickriver

            Dicen los libros que los machos jóvenes no están preparados para copular y el que vemos es joven, prácticamente sin pruinar. 
Pudiera ser que el término "joven" es algo ambiguo y no se ajusta totalmente a la coloración. Esto o que los machos de esta especie tienen un comportamiento algo raro como pudimos ver en la imagen de ayer con la hembra de O. cancellatum.

The books say that young males are not ready to copulate and the one we see is young, practically unprincipled.
It could be that the term "young" is somewhat ambiguous and does not fully match the coloration. This or that the males of this species have a somewhat strange behavior as we could see in yesterday's image with the female of O. cancellatum.
