The Common Darters can tend to line up on fences and fence posts, I read, so that they can get sunlight and have a vantage point form which to launch after prey.

I also read that thee females drop their eggs into the water whilst still being clasped by males. <!-- m -->nclick="window.open(this.href);return false;">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Darter<!-- m -->
