Hello,
This is a bug. Probably a Miriidae.

I have no clue what family it really is, but it's no Mirid.

The structure resembles Miridae, but I think the antennae are too short.
How about Pyrrhocoridae?

Miridae would be my guess, too...

This bug is not a Miridae but the unmistakable
Lygaeidae Aphanus rolandri.
