New from New Mexico

[NMAntz]

Hi! I'm new to the forum but not new to antscanda. Love that channel. I live in New Mexico and is has been incredibly kind to me and these last few rainstorms have been great for us. I'm looking forward to being a part of the community. Here's some pics of what I have caught so far.... Hopefully the links work

53 queens in total

Hey,
I fixed the links for you so people can just click on them. The pictures look great. If you need help identifying them, just post them per ant in the Identification center of the forum. It will help people look into it in a case by case fashion and it keeps a clean overview on for everyone.

Also catching 53 queens in total sound crazy to me. Crazy how lucky you were this year.
Will you put some of them up on the GAN Project or will you attempt to take care of them all or release some of them back into the wild? Of course excluding non native / invasive species.
