The Secret Life of Ants: A Fascinating Look into the World of These Tiny Insects through my lens.

Hello guys,
I started to take photos last week in my backyard. Beyond my backyard, there was a small grove of trees where a lot of birds and squirrels hangout, I've seen rabbits, monitor lizards, and even mongoose there sometimes, so I was hoping to get some pictures of any animals I come across, but I think I am not that lucky it seems, or maybe I was not careful enough. All of the birds I'd seen before entering were flown away the moment I stepped into the grove. after an hour of searching for some birds, I became very tired and needed to break, so I came to my home afterward. when I was returning home, I found a colony of ants and I thought to follow them to see where they are going.

There started to climb a bush nearby, I think they were collecting nectar from that bush or they are up to something, but I'm not sure what they were doing. After I started following them, I've seen two ants doing something, at first, they looked like they were fighting. but I think they were just communicating. but Im not sure tho.

What is weird is there was a beetle near them, and it was just chilling, it didn't do anything, it was just chilling, and I found it hilarious and funny, and since I thought the ants were fighting at first, It thought the beetle was just enjoying the show.

After a few minutes, they left to do their work, I tried to follow them and I missed them a moment afterward, they vanished through the leaves of the bush, but there were a lot of ants on the bush so I took some photos of the ant which was crawling around the fruits and flowers.

All photos were captured by me with nikon d3300 DSLR, 18 - 55 mm kit lens.

I hope you enjoyed the photos.

Thank you and STEEM ON!
