Uploadin' some more of my bug photos...
A red ant on a new mimosa tree (actually a Albizia julibrissin or Persian Silk Tree) branch. The branch was covered in aphids, which you can see if you look very closely (they're the little yellowish things). Ladybugs were patrolling around to eat them, and ants presumably to gather honeydew from them. Ants are fascinating creatures...
