I just took these in my backyard (they are on my house). I read that ant can carry 80 times their own weight. This proves it! Notice, they are french kissing :lol: C&C are welcome:

Both of them- full body

Excellent spot and shots Omri :)- I'm amazed at the size difference- approx how big are they ?

Now that must be hard yakka (Aussie slang for work). Very nice shots Omri - you don't see this sort of behaviour (or bravery) every day!
