Field Notes

Description:

Round structure being tended by ants. Seems to be covered by some powdery stuff...as if the aphids have been rolled into a ball.

Habitat:

We had stopped for a cup of tea on the National Highway 2...it was just chance that I saw this inside a shrub. No, I lie. After joining PN I am always actively scouting!

Notes:

These are Not weaver ants...I am intrigued by the stricture.
