Today, I learned about ants: These ants were waging a war on our driveway! Depending on the species, Queens can live between 5-30 years. Males live only for a season and spend it mating, (and apparently fighting), and workers are female and live a paltry 1-3 years. Thanks for looking!

Numbers 2, 5 and 6 are excellent photos Sydney! I imagine this battle was waged with a great deal of movement and tough to capture.
FYI Number five reminds me the sci-fi classic 'THEM!' Ahhhh giant ant! RUN AWAY!!!! Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time. (Thomas A. Edison) Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 10/21/2012 07:06AM by Outback. |

Your comments made me laugh, John--I remember watching a black and white movie about gigantic, Monster Ants who had to doused with flames, when I was a kid. (Great, after-school fun). Thanks for adding your input, as well. :)
