Of course we all envy you... since the vammos seem to get progressively less vividly coloured (just on the average, of course!)
from southeast to northwest of their European areal... Although, for the "solace" (rather poor, may I say) of us the "Northeners",
they also get (on the average) ever bigger.

The top one is a/the female? Is this a male/female couple at all?

Well, I took into account just the shape of the posterior part of the body of the top individual... ignoring its (lighter)
coloration, since the latter might not be a relevant trait for all individuals everythere... But if you checked, that's it.

In any case, and notwithstanding, send us more of that. We love it.
