Hello everyone!
It's been quite a while! I've missed you guys a lot and I'm finally back from my mission in Mexico and Texas!!
It was quite an experience and I saw many different ant species that I'm excited to share information about!!
Any updates on what's happened while I was gone?

That's what I'm seeing!! I kept a small Atta colony while I was over there after some flights! It was pretty cool, I gave it to a friend down there in Texas since I couldn't bring it with me. I think he is called TexTech on here. I'm also looking forward to finding some Trachymyrmex again now that I have a lot more experience with fungus growing ants!

Let’s work together on that project. I bought a mobile power station for blacklighting, so the sky’s the limit for this season.

Sounds good to me!! It would be nice to finally meet you in person! I'll send you a DM to work things out in the future!
