Description
An ant, watching over their livestock of greenflies. The ants don't eat the gereenflies themselves. Instead, it is their excrements they are after. It's some kind of sugary liquid that comes out after eating the sap of the plant. Talk about "Kissing ass" :-)

That's an absolutely AWESOME shot! Such a great macro! I've never seen the eyes of an ant before!It's so sharp and very well composed. How come I'm the first to comment???
