Frank felt he was finally getting the hang of the 6-legged backstroke

Another pool find. I don't know what I will do if the bugs ever quit falling in the pool.

I have a very real fear of ants and don't usually care to look at them...but this gets a fav from me!

So cool, from the title to the photo!

Great shot, great title. And I love your sense of humor.

[Nova]

Thanks for the smile and I like your title. :)

@darlenet @cherrymartina @maryswartz @novab Thank you all very much for your kind comments.

Love the title! Great example of the ants' waterproof shell. Last year, SC had monumental flooding and rafts of live fire ants could been seen floating in the water.....everywhere!

@oconeebell Thank you very much.

[Karen Mitchell]

@evalieutionspics This inspired me to also take a shot of a sugar ant in my pool... Thanks for the idea!

@hunnybee Thank you so much for all of your kind comments and wonderful FAVs! My PC blew a gasket New Year's Eve, and I have just today gotten it back. I am woefully behind in everything but very much appreciate you stopping into my project and especially letting me know what my bees are rightfully called.
