Well, if there was an Olympic event for carrying a feather in proportion to your own hight, I think we know who will win.
We were sat having lunch when we saw this feather ‘walking’ towards us. On closer inspection it turned out that an ant was carrying it like a flag. He started – well at least we first noticed him – by the back door. I then had to go, find the camera and start recording so we join him when he is carrying the feather up the wall by the well.
The vid is about 2 mins long – however it is worth watching to the end. Keep an eye out for how he positions himself to get the feather through an obstacle near the end and again at the very end how he positions the feather to get down the hole.
Amazing!
(and yes, perhaps we should get out more!)
Mum – you might need to leave it for a few minutes to load.
