Sorry for the blury photos, it is late here and I have bad lighting.

I found these in a park. The park had a lot of Camponotus pennsylvanicus in it.

These seem to be slightly small for C. Pen but they could be new workers of a fresh queen..

Let me know if the photos are not good enough and I will try again tomorrow.
