I decided to take some pictures of some of the ants in my backyard. The Solenopsis queen alates have flown a lot in the past couple of days. They are EVERYWHERE. I saw some on the ground digging their founding chamber so I took some pics.
Here are some Pheidole workers carrying away a Solenopsis male alate.
More Pheidole
And some Dorymyrmex workers carrying away another Solenopsis male.
