    Good question...many ants do eat pollen, but I'm not sure about this species. At the very least, it probably consumes nectar. Posted 3 years ago

      I didn't know that, it was a wild guess just by seeing this little guy searching for something on this flower. Thanks for sharing your knowledge Christine ;-) Posted 3 years ago
