Hi and good morning (at least here in Germany)!

Today I would like to show you our local red ants from a forest nearby. It's a Myrmica ruginodis which takes care of some aphids. Maybe you know that aphids are like the cows for us.

So it's really a little world within a world, isn't it? Most of us doesn't take care of it.

Best regards,
Jörg
