        <![CDATA[ This area contains observers&#39; notes, photographs/pictures, and/or videos detailing field observations on ants. Think of this as a collection of
diaries/journals/logs (please put exact date and location in the thread titles) for observation. Put locality information of the ant occurrences. Any
additional details on habitat (soil, vegetation), microhabitat (nest site), prey, other species interactions, weather conditions, etc. will also be welcome.
Basically, post details! Use Keeping Ants... ]]>
