Slurping it in...

[Prajwal J Ullal]

ID: Weaver ant

One more from the ant series, this time tried to distract few of the ants i tried putting a drop of water onto the path. Though most of them got distracted for a moment but kept on moving, but one of them seemed to be brave enough to check on the distraction and almost started tasting/ feeding on it. Could manage to capture that moment of it slurping the liquid in.

Good details. Liked the composition. Good you could observe and capture this behaviour closely. Nicely captured. Thanks for sharing.
