~smile~. I'm sure he'll love it...and tell us the species too.
To me they are just red ants.

Actually, looking again, they are not the red ants I remember from my youth.

I noticed he was online and remembered I had a pretty good photo of ants in my March folder so enter it I did.

I bet that wasn't from March this year!
My POM entries theme this month is ice, since we have had two ice storms, a week apart, and the ice is beautiful if destructive to my plants. I admit to deeply resenting an ice storm on March 18 when it should be springtime! Pine warbler, resting on ice covered baffle from the bird feeder knocked down by my fallen tree  Daffodils, very sad, in the ice  Dogwood blossom, about to open, but will it still after being enclosed in ice?  Icy sparkles on my sweetbox and on the left over stalks of asters above my doomed lettuce seedlings...

 Two years ago, I was in the woods peeking at salamanders.  Year before that...Watching someone climb upon the buckling ice. This year, we're still looking at nearly two feet of snow and will be dropping down to about 6 degrees again by Saturday....

Thanks, Hava. It looks like an alien mouth about to open up to me. I like your salamanders.
Any signs of spring up there in frigid land? I may bitch and moan about ice storms, but I know I have it a lot better here than you folks up north, bless your hearts! (that is a southernism for I am glad I am not you...)

Ice can make things beautiful as your photos show.
Cute pine warbler...I hope I get some here some day. Quote:
