This was on Sunday of this week. I was walking my dog when I spotted an ant. I bent down to get a closer look, and it was a wingless queen, wandering around on the sidewalk. I let her be, and then I spotted another queen. This queen was trying to dig, but I guess she was stuck or something. Anyways, I continued walking, stopping to visit the 2 wild ant colonies that I like to watch, and I saw some black, wasp-like winged ants, which I immediately recognized as drones. So cool!
