An ant eating something else... what i have no idea! :P

I was motivated to go do some macro this afternoon, so went out hunting bugs and found this lone ant rummaging around a flower bed... using my iphone as a make-shift external light source i chased it around trying to get it in focus...

Now i would like to add at this point that i use a reversed late 70's M42 mount 50mm f/1.8 Pentacon as a macro set-up. It does not have auto-focus to start with, but once you reverse it, focusing is achieved via moving closer and further away from the subject. So when this little chap was running around, i looked like a right fool rocking back and forth (to get focus) in the middle of a flower bed waving my iphone around with the tourch function on... oh well... i like the result! :)

Again... to me it is just an ant, i have no idea of species...
