It's been a few days since I've opened the enclosure for her colony, so she must have been lost in the apartment for several days. She managed to not get eaten by a spider or by #pica! (yes Pica will eat ants)
I gave her some sugar water before returning her to her home. #antVideo #camponotus #ants #antkeeping #antsOfMastodon #WithNarration

(why I want people to watch ant videos is a question I can't really fathom...) I made a really good new video today with a time lapse that shows how heat sensitive Camponotus discolor are. They move their pupae constantly to maintain ideal development conditions.

Good Morning Fediverse!
That brief moment of panic when you think your #ants, that do sting, may have gotten out ...

One of my many hobbies... Camponotus castaneus ants coming out of diapause are laying eggs again. Sorry for lack of a good macro shot, but the yellow orange bean shaped objects are this season's eggs and some larvae are white.
Also added water into the outworld of the Pogonomyrmex occidentalis ants. This colony had a whole 1-2 week diapause before getting active again. These are not really primary sources of water, but gives the workers something to do.

Now they are doing the prep work to have a big population boom for spring. This colony is going to be HUGE. #antvideo #carpenterAnts #camponotus #ants #antsOfMastodon #antqueen

6100 followers · 8997 posts · Server sauropods.winCheck out this incredible 200-day timelapse of the agracultural work of a leaf cutter #ant colony kept as pets by Attines.
The way the fungus mound grows and cycles must be what's happening in their underground chambers all over the Americas.
There are species of leaf-cutters that live as far north as CT. Though the northern species tend to farm fungus on dead, rather than living leaves. #video #antsofmastodon #antvideo

Acrobat #ant (Crematogaster sp.) 'Pagoda', near #Powai #lake, #Mumbai, #India.
Largely arboreal, these ants of forests, woodland, and scrubland, can also be found in the parks, and gardens of urban Mumbai, where their large Pagoda style nests are hard to miss.
The waterproof nests are constructed by chewing up bark, and leaves, and further fortified by mixing mud.
