    The antennae, and the little hooks at the end of each leg, the longer I look at it, the more there is to discover. Nicely detailed shot. Posted 9 years ago

      It's funny, I rarely see antlions at home, and this one just hung out on the wall right by the door for the whole day. Posted 9 years ago

        In my experience, they are always there, but not easy to find. When I find them, they are usually deep intro shrubs in dark places on the underside of a leaf. Posted 9 years ago
