Ants In My Garden

These are pictures of Red Ants that I found outside my house.

Two ants are climbing back to their nest one beautiful afternoon, and now a third ant comes to join the two on their walk back.

Now all three ants are walking back to their nest.

The three ants on their walk back to their nest (taken from a slightly different angle).

The nest is finally coming into view. Now four more ants enter the scene, one going out of the nest, two more walking behind the three main ants.

The three ants are almost at their nest, but it's quite hard to spot the third ant because a part of the tree branch is blocking it from view.

Now the three have arrived inside their nest, but one of them is sliding out of the nest.

Their little friend has fallen out of the nest and is hanging

for his life (sort of).

This is a close up of the ant nest, as you can see there are ants climbing in and out of the nest, but their friend is still dangling at the bottom of the nest.

Finally, the ants manage to pull their friend back in the nest.
