Mind Over Matter, Ant Style

Ant pulling a piece of chocolate cake that is bigger than he is, Vernegues, France. This little ant has figured out that, if he tries hard enough and really sets his mind to it, life can truly be all sweets and chocolate. Ah, but the ants have no bread you say. They are hungry... "Let them eat cake." Chocolate cake, at that!

Drowned in Pollen



Ant Drowned in Poppy Pollen. A bee's thrill is this ant's nightmare... Trapped by steep, slippery sides and rolling in pollen, this ant is much worse for the wear.

Hypothesis: Poppies appear to be bee-pollinated based on what I've seen so far. Steep, slippery petals would keep out marauding ants while the pollen is fresh and/or until the bees have managed to pollinate the flower.
