“Go to the ant….”

Category: Ants | Date: Oct 19 2007 | By: admin

One of the most resonant quotes from the bible comes from King Solomon crying out to his people: “Go to the ant, you sluggard. Consider her ways, and be wise” (Book of Proverbs 6:6)

I have recently been looking very closely at some of the most marvelous and industrious of all little creatures - ants. These are harvester ants and I look forward to sharing more with you about them in the near future…

And many thanks to everyone for the comments and questions - I will respond more fully to some of these soon.
