Ant (Solenopsis geminata (Fabricius))
In my language mravlja

Ant meals:
There are many species of ants. Their favorite food varies according to the species. Sweet foods are very important for worker ants as sources of energy for outputting power and the protein of insect bodies is an important material for building up the ant's body.

Ant fighting:
Some kinds of ants are quite aggressive in protecting their nest or food resouces. The enemy sometimes may be an ant of the same species and sometimes of a different ant species. The fight is continued until the enemy's body is dismembered or it dies.

Nice picture of these ants. It seems that they survived the rain seeing the drops. You've reached a quit well DOF with f/2.8

Hi Tjasa
Nice photo, it can be hard to get ants sharp in an image but you have done it here quite well. The water droplets give an nice scale to the photo.
Good photo, regards
Matt.

ahh les fourmis me fascine! j'ai toujours voulu réussir à faire de bonnes photos de fourmis, mais jusqu'à maintenant je n'y suis encore pas parvenu, c'est pour ça que j'admire particulièremnt ce genre de photo. Bravo !
