Ants (Camponotus fulvopilosus)
Camponotus fulvopilosus (De Geer, 1778). Thanks to Philip Herbst for providing the species determination in comments below. Found at Bontebok National Park, S of Swellendam. Western Cape, South Africa.
A beautiful Camponotus sp. This nest was seemingly under an embedded rock off of Termite Loop Trail. There is one winged reproductive visible in the picture (I added a rollover note indicating where it is).
Single exposure, uncropped, handheld, in situ. Canon MT-24EX flash unit, Ian McConnachie diffuser.
