Summer Afternoon Antics..

Funny the things you observe when you're sitting down for a breather on a hot summer afternoon...

This ant spent ages dragging the corpse of goodness knows what (a moth or bee perhaps?) across the patio, struggling against the wind and the rough grouting between the tiles...

This one, on the other hand, had a helper - until I got the camera out!

Its helper must have been camera shy but it didn't stop this plucky one trying to drag its find across the patio.. Same problem with the grouting,though!

Strange, the antics of ants! Much as I dislike them for the nasty bites they give me, you have to admire their grit and determination.
