“Don’t come near, gadfly.” Somebody was talking to me.
It was a busy morning over in the meadow: A grasshopper hopped recklessly as it sensed an approaching earthquake. A butterfly flew restlessly as the nectar smelled sweaty and stinky. A bee hammered its head relentlessly against a weed flower; it stung itself after missing the target.
“Go away.” The protest came back. I then understood that I was not that hateful. There was some sort of gadfly nearby an ant.
I assumed the role of Superman to help fighting the villain away.
The ant was in turn busy in action, busy showing off under the flashlights.
Everybody was very busy, everybody was busy not for own self, and nothing seemed to ever get done in a busy morning.
Ah, Superman thought that he could rescue the world.

Oh the ant is so hairy. It would scare the enemies away. Glad that superman gets involved:-)
lovely images. and it IS a very hairy ant!
I did not know that there are hairy ants.
Ha ha! We had Spierman the other day.
Today is Superman.
So if you take pictures of a firefly, she would become Firestar, right?
These are great macros of the ant. I, too, was surprised at the bristles on the ant.
wow, your macro shot of the ant is very impressive, the hairs are so well defined and stand out. never saw ants that hairy. everybody was busy, and that was good :)
Yes he is the Superman. Those macros are very impressive
a hairy ant?! never saw one like that. how interesting.
You must have an excellent camera to capture even the hair on this so very busy little ant.
The ant is quite a bit bigger than the gadfly. He should pick on someone his own size. Superman saved another life in distress.
Beautiful photos!
I had problem in my computer and with my internet ...
