Ants, Formicidae

Ants are social insects. They are organised, highly principled, fearless, flexible, and shall I say hard working too? They also work very well in a team, never give up to achieve their goals, whatever it is.

Here's a slideshow of some other ants I've photographed (the album will grow as I add more photos to it):
