Insecticide


This insect and the world I breathe - Dylan Thomas




the ants carried aloft 

by those wasps

-  will they be missed?




Austria 1945. In order to avoid being killed or taken prisoner by the oncoming Russians the defending soldiers threw their weapons and equipment, including this vehicle, into a fast flowing river, and ran for their lives. 

The ants on my windowsill had no chance to escape from the circling wasps; they didn't detect the presence of those drones until it was too late.

  1. The ants run with the wasp
    Upside down
    The soldiers run
    To freedom

  2. i wondered where the wasps took the ants, it was a strange thing to watch, there were about 5 wasps hovering and then suddenly 2 or 3 flew down and picked up an ant each , and then the whole group flew away.
