Title: Macro photo of pollinator ant
Post by: teesquare on June 21, 2015, 08:49:38 PM: This was a tough one to get. This ant is between 2-3mm in length. And - they are always moving. It tok maybe...20 shots to get him in profile.
He is on Joe Pie Weed blooms. Each bloom is about 1/4 the size of a pencil eraser.
