I liked it for the fun angle. To me, it looks like the ants are walking along the leaf and diving off, hence the title.<br /><br />Someone once said to me that if it weren’t for the ants, Australia would sink. With around 1,300 described species (15% known species worldwide), it’s not far from the mark.<br /><br />It’s an absolute pleasure reading your riffs each day. They’re beautifully written and because of their size, the perfect reading snack.Vickihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02678687120165473412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7439899549982535994.post-53923910643654002042010-01-08T19:16:07.606+11:002010-01-08T19:16:07.606+11:00Lovely composition of leaf, bark and ant here Vick...Lovely composition of leaf, bark and ant here Vicky.<br /><br />When I was young I lived on a farm in the Hunter Valley. We had green ants. About this size with a black body and irridescent green head. Their bite was absolutely unbearable.<br /><br />The touch of bark was one of the first things I introduced my children to in my garden. Glorious skin for a tree to have.<br /><br />Also, I thank you for having a read of my story each day. Just having one reader is all that it takes. So, thank you.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09513648613788716017noreply@blogger.com
