This was in Louisiana when the Ant Lab at LSU was commissioned by a British TV show to dig up a leaf cutter ant nest. This species, Atta texana, is the only one that occurs in North America.
This was in Louisiana when the Ant Lab at LSU was commissioned by a British TV show to dig up a leaf cutter ant nest. This species, Atta texana, is the only one that occurs in North America and Louisiana is the leaf cutter ant's most northern range.
Here the leaves are macerated into bits and the white fuzz is the fungus which the ant then will eat. The symbiosis is strict and complex.

Digging through the archives I found my winning entry to our camera club portfolio competition from 2004/5. They are views of the lighthouses at the entrance to Whitehaven harbour. (Canon G5)
Fender enjoys the game too! We've always played it with Sophie, where you toss a rock into the water and they have to stick their head under water and find it. And now Fender plays it too! He loves it.
(Sam, this is the picture I was talking about!! Not as good as yours, but funny that I took a pic of him doing that too!)

Can anyone identify this street in Stirling?
I've just now found this photograph that I made in about 1980 when I lived in Uist and was attending a short course in the Photography Department of St. Andrews University.
I remember that I was impressed with how spritely the digging woman seemed to be despite her old age and what looked like a bad back.
Although I lived for three years in the early 1990s a few miles from Stirling and knew the town quite well I am still unable to work out what street this is and what my vantage point would have been on a wall or a footpath above a vegetable garden..
