They are working their way up to ice cream ant status!

They have a sweet tooth.

I remember those ants in my driveway as a kid! Hey, Bassett, how about once in awhile mentioning rescue dogs.

Donut sprinkle ants are fascinating. You can watch them pick up each different color and keep track as they get closer to the ant hill hole. Then, bye bye. :D

and then the soda pop bees, lordy don’t let one of those near your lips!

Almost time for Popsicle Pete

The poop flies are the worst.

I remember being fascinated by things like that as a child. Now that I’m refired, I notice myself doing it once more!

A pair of budding entomologists.

Take time to take a glance at the ants.

Ants are adaptable to their surroundings…they go where the food and drink are and more

I’d rather see them than the ones from the South who are all obviously sun-burned due to their color…

I LOVE this comic. It brings back al the memories of childhood. Ahh for the simple times when we actually stopped to watch the ants. Or fry them with a magnifying glass.

Cute!!!

I’ve heard they’re called “pavement ants”, which I also thought was a funny name. Ants really like to eat anything sweet, and it’s fun to see them change color if you feed them food-colored sugar water: https://img.memecdn.com/colored-ants_o_2957313.jpg
