User's notes

I noticed all these ants on this short wattle (Red Leafed I think) and I thought it was odd, so I look some 'ant' photos not realising they were attending to lots and lots of acacia leafhoppers until much later. doh! I love the hairs standing up on their butts. Maybe because it was windy they were more prominent.
