The Desert Botanical Garden in Phoenix, Arizona is hosting David Roger’s Big Bugs sculpture exhibit. We went to visit today. Of course I went right for the ants. The big ants are nicely positioned along the skyline. At 725 pounds each, these are serious ants! What, no elbowed antennae? And of course, little ants… Note to self: If all your photographs [...] Do you get the BBC TV channel? You might want to look around to see if Natural World: Empire of the Desert Ants is playing. It looks fabulous! (or if you live in the U.K., try this link. It doesn’t work in the U.S.) Cinematographer/photographer John Brown spent 150 days in the Arizona desert filming honeypot [...] You’ve got to see this: Rainbowizing ants will brighten up your insect infestation And after you are done there, head over to EvoEcoLab for a new Circus of the Spineless. It was threatening rain last night and the humidity was way up. I knew the alates would be flying, so I dragged the family to the Hassayampa River Preserve near Wickenburg, Arizona. By the time we arrived just before 8:00 a.m., some of the ants were escorting the alates back to the nest.
