Sorry about d verbal noise from d neighbor and water delivery truck, but d ants, aphids and d beetle didn't seem to mind 'em, i mean, d noise and toxins they freely give us now n then. Other insect photos: http://www.yessy.com/glennbautista/insects.html
good one glenn. that's symbiosis! that ant owns/protects the aphid which rewards the ant with a glob of nectar it oozes from its body. the ladybug i think is a vicious predator and the ant is trying to shoo it away. shit ahbeen watching too much discovery channel=)
