"Hey Man, Check you left!"
"This creature filled with flesh and bone, receding hair come back again".
"With the same thing, big hood, light and a flash-bang".
"Maybe we should learn how to close our eyes".
"His flash-bang gonna makes us blind!"
"I know, keep going, and try to move faster so he can not keep up with us".
"Maybe with that we will not see this thing again in the future"
"I already a bit fed up"
I think I overheard someone talking while I was taking these shots of Oecophylla smaragdina
or the Asian Weaver Ant. But yeah, I have taken photos of this species a few times already. They are widespread, and quite easy to spot, so they could be a great subject to photograph.
Even for the photos in this post, I got them in a few spots in my uncle's yards when I was home. Rather than I don't get any subject to photograph so I just take the photos of this ant again.
Not sure about the two shots below, I think one of the weaver ants with young ants in its mouth. Maybe they want to move or something?
The one with the young ant on its mouth moves too fast that I could only took two photos, while here I get the other ant that came afterward.
While this one I took on the coffee leaf. He seemed to be wandering alone, maybe checking things out and ready to ambush some prey or pushing aways some predator.
Next one made me angry a little bit, since it photobombed my planthopper shots.
