There were a couple of frenetic sexual orgies in my garden this evening whilst I was having an early dinner. Flying ants; black ant females were emerging in their hundreds for just a few minutes before calm was restored and the males returned underground once the queens had all flown away.
There is a good article on this at http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/magazine/7525028.stm
Meanwhile here are some pic's.
