Large Milkweed Bug
Family: Lygaeidae (Seed Bugs)
Species: Oncopeltus fasciatus
I have probably about 30 or more of these between two of my milkweeds (my pink and white ones). Very, very active guys with some serious stamina...the two in the first shot were mating for a good 2-3 hours (my kind of bug )
