Jack Jumper - Myrmecia pilosula

The colony lives in a underground nest with the excavated gravel showing the size of the nest . This one was only about a quarter of a sq. meter. Some nests are 2 or 3 sq. meters with millions of ants very active on warm days. The best is not to stop and look at them as they very quickly will attack and will cause a lot of pain. Interesting notes on this species in the info section.
