Hi, I'm Billy. Some of you might remember me from Myrm's Ant Nest, back when that was a thing. I have been interested in ants for about 7 or 8 years now. I currently have a fledgeling colony of Lasius niger, 9 L. niger queens, 6 L. flavus queens and 13 or 14 Myrmica sp. queens. I also enjoy wildlife photography, especially macro photography of invertebrates. If any of you are interested in taking a look at my photos, here is my flickr photostream: https://www.flickr.c...0045@N05/626R8G
