Description
An ant milking an aphid on a rose.
When taking these photos I was only aware of the ant. Only when looking at the images on the PC I knew why the ants were so interested in the rose blossoms.

Awsome shot. They do that on my plants too. I wish they'd just eat them and be done with it, but nature has it's own plan.
