The answer is simple -- they are indeed mating. Their mating process actually takes hours, thus you see most of them stuck together while flying. ... Here's the sad part (well, not really but roll with it) -- the male love bug dies after mating and is dragged around by the female until she lays her eggs.

Yes, they will breed together. But they are not schooling fish. They will however live together in the same tank without anymore issues than keeping all of one or the other. All males may fight with each other.

The male swan is called the Cob. He typically weighs more and looks slightly larger than the female (the Pen), although it is often difficult to tell the male and female apart. The female swan will incubate the eggs and both parents will take care of the young once they are hatched.

Do the male and female crow mate for life? More or less. In general, it appears that they do. Unless a mate is killed or severely incapacitated, crows appear to stay with the same mate year after year.

They mate for life with very low “divorce rates,” and pairs remain together throughout the year. Geese mate “assortatively,” larger birds choosing larger mates and smaller ones choosing smaller mates; in a given pair, the male is usually larger than the female.

Breeding system Current evidence suggests that wild, domestic and feral pigeons mate for life, although their long-term bonds are not unbreakable. They are socially monogamous, but extra-pair matings do occur, often initiated by males.

Many anglers have pulled these baits from the mouth of a cobia as the hook never made it to the jaw. ... In either case, presenting baits will produce different results. Either they will act disinterested and slowly swim off. Or they will jump on and consume whatever you throw at them.

Oscar fish can live alone, or with a buddy. They are not schooling fish so it is up to you if you will combine them with a partner or not. Oscar fish can be compatible with other South American Cichlids but some rules of thumb must be followed.

Geese prefer to mate on water. Swimming water is only necessary in the breeding season. ... Geese should be mated at least 1 month before the breeding season starts. Geese are selective in choosing their mates and, once successful matings have been established, will remain together for life.

Cane Corso can live in harmony with cats. It is said that the Cane Corso has a strong prey drive, but they are also devoted to their family and excel at following the lead of their owners. They are well capable of recognizing cats as their family members, because their owners do.

Towhees, Benedict says, mate for life, do not migrate, and keep the same territory every year. Without the need to establish new territories and find new mates every year, she suspects towhees are much more loyal to each other than are other birds.

There is still a lot to learn about Barred Owl breeding ecology and reproductive success, in part because their nests are hidden and inaccessible. Judging from the fact that individuals are known to maintain territories for many years, pairs probably mate for life and are monogamous.

Male Seahorses Like Big Mates. Summary: Male seahorses select partners based on their body size, according to a new study. ... However, clutch, egg and offspring size all increase with female body size in seahorses, suggesting that males may obtain fecundity benefits by mating with large-bodied females.

Because attractive females can mate multiple times, this system results in very strong competition in sexual selection, and female gulf pipefish have evolved strong secondary sexual traits, Jones said. Seahorses, however, are monogamous within a breeding season, and each seahorse only mates with one other seahorse.

this practice will go on...and especially in the case of birds bred and raised in captivity, they know no difference and can live long and healthy happy lives in our homes as pets... like dogs and cats..and like the fish that you keep caged...same thing.
