Flying Ants


Seems like there was an ant flight this evening which was attracting all the local swifts and starlings into the air. I reckon there was at least 1000 Swift which is the most I've seen in years and Starlings must have been near 1000 too.
Come across 2 Painted Ladies on the mound- weird looking face (click for a better view).
