My house is invaded by ants!
I took all the sweet stuff away but there are still some ants picking up the leftovers.
I don't mind, it's a good opportunity to observe them.
Gear used: Canon 300D MP-E 65mm 420EZ flash and a small softbox
Licking leftovers from a glass
There is plenty enough on the knife too.
Now this is interesting, there was a tiny piece of meet on the working top.
The ants bite pieces out of it and are making little balls.
These balls can be picked up by other ants to take to the nest I suppose.
Adult ants can only eat liquid food, the larvae can eat solid.
Exchanging food, ants have two stomachs.
One for themselves and the other one for sharing.
