No worries here (I am worried that my e-mail may have been the unintentional

mating behaviours, which, as I continue to learn as I read more about
different species, vary widely.  Monogamy, polygamy, polyandry, infidelity,
all are present and all are part of the panoply of wonder that draws us to
these magical, fluttering creatures.
