    Macro Close Up of Kitchen Whisk

    Ant on a pink plant

    June 13, 2022 / No Comments

    I happend to catch this ant wandering around a flower. Ants actually do seek nectar from flowers but because they have very little hair so there is no place for pollen to stick on them so they are rather poor pollenators. Photographed with: Nikon D7100, Nikon 40 mm MACRO lens, Nikon SB-400 flash (hand held off camera), tripod mounted. ISO…
