No little baby animals available to me but I did find some little critters on the peonies at Judy's house. I have no idea why ants like peonies so much. But I don't ever think I've seen a peony without one!
Nice shot, Ann! Great detail in the peony and you make those ants look massive! I hate those big black ants. And the little brown ones. And the red ones... Okay... I can't stand any ant. They are such a nuisance! Great job! :)
those ants look nasty! great macro shot. i'm so far behind in commenting on your second album and i'm really sorry but i know you do understand. we're still friends, aren't we? :-)
When I was about 5, I was covered by a swarm of ants (or at least it felt like a swarm to me; it was probably 5 or 6) as I attempted to pick peonies. I love peonies (and this shot is sensational) but I am definitely wary of their ant passengers.
@kerristephens Thank you Kerri! @dakotaburns Thanks Donald- and thanks for unraveling the mystery! @digitalrn Thank you Rick! @httpgeffed Thank you Colleen- it does seem like that doesn't it? @vposey Thank you Vickie! @sangwann Thank you Dione! @prttblues Thank you Bev! Can't say I'm crazy about them either! @summerfield Thank you Vikki! Oh please do not feel bad! I am soooo far behind on 365 it is not even funny! And I've probably missed a gazillion shots of yours as well. Not to worry- we will always be friends! It looks like I will be landing in Batavia for a while some time in July (2nd or 3rd week depending on when grandchild #5 arrives). I will keep you posted as the date approaches! @vesna0210 Thank you Vesna! @jplovescotton Thank you Janice! I guess they need the ants though to help the buds open. @allie912 Thank you Allison! That would totally freak me out! And I don't blame you for being wary!
For some reason they really attract the ants
