One of the odd things to come out of this weather event. Around here we have a particularly nasty species of ant called Fire Ants. They were introduced into Texas from South America back in the 1940's and over time have spread all over the southeast. They are very aggressive and have a nasty bite that forms a pustule that is slow to heal. Any hope that this weather event would drown these suckers was dashed when someone saw this: http://abc7.com/weather/ants-form-floating-island-to-combat-flooding-in-south-carolina/1021709/ Charlie -- _________________________________________________________________ Options: http://lists.thomasclausen.net/mailman/listinfo/olympus Archives: http://lists.thomasclausen.net/mailman/private/olympus/ Themed Olympus Photo Exhibition: http://www.tope.nl/ |
