I watched this ant carry his catch form leaf to left on this bush for about 10 minutes. He would stop a few minutes and then move on again. I finally gave up and walked away. He must be really particular about where he eats.....

Well, it's not every day I am looking out of my window and see a beautiful Green Woodpecker foraging for ants in my garden...so off I ran to get my camera not imagining it to still be there when I returned...but there it was! Shot through glass so a little (very!) iffy in quality...but I'm happy regardless!😁

Just a quick shot I took and edited after finally getting the 'Ant-Man Final Battle' set recently.

Hope you enjoyed!

I can't resist spending some time around our Rose of Sharon tree when the ants are plentiful and willing to be photographed.

After several days of cool and wet weather, today the sun came out and warmed things up. I guess the ants thought it was time to throw a Party.

Small Black ants!

During my fungi walk yesterday I came upon an almost exhausted stinkhorn. A few greenbottles wee feeding until a hornet attacked them. Then the activities of the wood ants became more obvious. I once knew someone who took a stinkhorn home for breakfast thinking it to be a morel - something she only did once.
