Lots flying in Toronto today. Caught several Myrmica rubra in the pool, saw a load of Solenopsis molesta queens (too small for my liking), caught a Stimatoma pallipes I think, and in Markham Lasius neoniger are flying.

Lots of rainy but cold days ahead may see one or two last minute flyers I wonder if we're going to get an early or late winter this year.

I believe I saw pogonomyrmex. . Last night but it was so quick that by the time I realized what I saw turned around to look at her again she was gone... but I'm almost positive.
