Camponotus Castaneus

I recently found this ant species that I really like. I realized that they live in parts of my home state (New York) which made me excited. But I don’t know where I might find them. Since it’s near the end of nuptial flight for camponotus queens, im wondering where I might look for some that have already found a place to birth their nanitics.

Try peeling up bark on dead trees or flipping up rocks.
Why keep ants that aren't found in your yard?
There are so many fascinating ants right where you live!
I disagree with the keeping/buying of ants that aren't in your area.
