Antz Attack!

Red Ants at Work!

The ant has made herself illustrious
By constant industry industrious.
So what? Would you be calm and placid
If you were full of formic acid?

~Ogden Nash

Witnessed this delicate scene after a night of heavy rains. The ant was definitely overworked and didn’t linger long.

Found this lil guy sticking on to the flower at my office. If I remember my basic zoology then its a male ant during the mating season.

All work and no play makes ants one of the most successful organisms to inhabit out planet. Here’s a short peom by Ogden Nash.



” The ant has made himself illustrious Through constant industry industrious. So what? Would you be calm and placid If you were full of formic acid? “

A little sweet syrup on the floor and the ant army comes out.
