Herders, Weavers


I took this on a hike through Ein Peskha in the Judeah desert, a nature reserve that holds this rare type of ant, known in Hebrew as the Weaving Ant (there is a different kind of ant known by this name in English), due to it's ability to build silken webs which hold Aphids, the ants' indirect source of food.
