ants

I have left this on as large as possible to see these tiny ants that cause so much damage here,
this photo was taken on my roof balcony the sand is similar to the hour glass sand (very fine)
Just to give you some Idea how strong and small they are. one grain of sand is the equivalent
of lifting 3 times your own weight. and that is nothing to what these creatures can lift and carry over vast areas. and if its too heavy for one they will get help I have seen up to 50 moving a dead wasp.
will bring some sand from the building site next door and take a photo I love the colors once I see it in macro.
its like when I sit on the beach I love rubbing my feet in the sand (therapeutic)
