While I was standing in front of my house, I noticed that there were so many red ants gathering on the ground. I don't know what these red ants were doing, maybe they were gathering around some food or perhaps they were moving to another place.
These ants are extremely small, so they are very difficult to photograph using only a cellphone camera. That's why using a macro lens is the right choice. Even though they are very small, we still shouldn't play with them or intentionally touch them because this type of ant has a very painful bite.
Unlike most other types of ants that we usually find on trees, this type of ant is often found on the ground. In some of the photos I will share, we can not only see their beauty, but also understand and learn how they work. They do it together and help each other, making a big task easier.
Even while I was photographing these ants, one of them managed to bite my arm. It wasn't too painful, but it was quite surprising.

Okay everyone, now I will share some pictures of these fire ants here.
