Flying Ants

Flying Ants

There are so many phenomenal insect activities that happen in a moment and then are gone.  If you're not in your back yard at that precise or spy something from a window, then you miss out.

Just as I was about to put the washing on the line one day last month- here was a swarm of big flying ants.  They came quickly from the log and flew away in a matter of seconds.  Amazing. 

I love the quirks and impossible feats of the natural world.  Great fuel for writing and an analogy of creativity and ongoing hope for one's own writing output.
