myrmepropagandist#antVideo #antvideos should pull up a few things.
Important colony update. Here are the soon to be newest members of the colony. #antvideo #ants #camponotus
Even the queen moves quickly. They are always fighting over who gets to carry what. There is generally a small clutch of eggs in the nest and I have never seen them set it down. An ant is always proudly holding the cluster of new eggs and she won’t let her sisters help her hold it. I think they must sit it down when it’s dark and quiet in the nest— but if I’m taking photos? well we never get to see them calm first that reason! Ants notice photographers! #formica #ants #antvideo
New ant video of the pavement ants I disturbed moving nest.
(With narration describing what the ants are doing.)

Ants moving nest in the moss.
Tulip, the eastern black carpenter ant (Camponotus pennsylvanicus) is a median worker. She likes to hang out at the highest point of the driftwood branch. Like most elderly ants (she is nearly 2 years old) she no longer enters the main nest. (I think older ants avoid the nest chambers to prevent disease) she spends a lot of time looking up… she has escaped twice. On her first escape I gave her the pink dots.

My carpenter ants are always stepping on each other with their cute fuzzy feet. I think the sensation of nest mates touching each other is calming to them, they seem to go out of their way to walk on top of each other. #video #antvideo #ants #carpenterAnts
Aren't their feet cute?
Ants Terra EN has a great new video up about his weavers.
OECOPHYLLA SMARAGDINA - SUCCESS OR NOT? WEAVER ANTS PART 3!
This carpenter ant escaped when I was cleaning their outworld. Now she desperately wants back in. This is why I don’t worry much about escaped ants they always come back — though she has attracted a crowd to the lid and you can see them sticking their antennae out to touch her. #ants #AntVideo #video

If you are curious about these ants one of the best videos is this one:
