Strange Ant-ics

As one does, I was sitting watching an ant at work – or play, you can never be sure. In his mits he had this enormous feather and was pulling it with great gusto, as they do, towards the entrance to the colony. What he was going to do with it, the mind boggles. A trophy for the Queen? No doubt the rest of the colony would be tickled by his endeavours….Maybe he was an ant inventor heading down the same road as Daedalus and Icarus, who knows?. With my cheapo, run of the mill digital camera I decided a picture was in order!
