A
pink carpet of ants -- leafcutters carry flowers
(19 seconds, 18.9 Mb)
I
was walking through the arboretum at La Selva biological Station
when I came across this beautiful flowing pink river. A tree about
20 meters from a leafcutter ant colony was dropping thousands
of pink petals. The leafcutters were collecting them and carrying
them back to their nest... a delightful sight!
