it looks wonderful @digitalis

Just wow.. you capture it great.. you have the skill bro.

Amazing macro!

Unusual that it is laying eggs out in the open, Interesting shots.

it's inside a curl leaf. that's why i can only shoot head first. i was tempted to open the leaf but i thought of letting it be. and try to find out tomorow what it will bringd :) maybe more eggs and some ant workers?

Great story! Hope to see a continued story of this ant queen :)
