just up the Ottawa river from Ottawa, right near the river and some forest flying in the lights
is it a queen or a male? I find the larger species a little easier, Even if I only get a ballpark I'd be happy. First year and I do have some promising larger speicies. Nope you can see this picture.

Thanks in advance :D

Lasius Male.
An ants' strength can be rivaled by few animals compared to relative body size.

Thanks for letting me know. First time I"ve actually seen them flying and crawling on the ground under the light. I hopefully got a few fertile queens. This one was the same time and place about the same size I think. I get a better feeling with this one but the picture isn't as good. I think this one likes patio stones and driveways and well anything else :)
