OK, I will keep an eye on it...

I've added another picture, but I think it is similar to the others. By the shape, I thought this could be a Pyrrhocoridae Bug.

Do you have a closer shot? I am not sure if it is really a Pyrrhocoridae, but definitely a Hemiptera, True Bug. And "true" means unfortunately also "sometimes very similar".
