I found the Queen? below in a park today. There were many smaller ants like the one below surrounding it. I think they might be the same species. If the bigger ant is indeed a Queen, then hopefull she adopts the smaller ant, although I srill highly doubt she is a Queen. Please tell me if it is a Queen. Thank You.
Btw- if it is a Queen I can get more of those workers for her, but I still don't think she is a queen.

No she isn't, the smaller ants might have been attacking her though...

Cool! Thanks! Maybe I can find some Camponotus Queens when they have nuptial flights. I'll make sure to keep an eye on that place. :)
