Pincers or Mincers

Bull ant series. Mandibles capable of some serious pain (I should know, I copped a bite on my hand whilst taking one of these this morning, my hand is a little tender at the moment).
I hope you enjoy, more than what I did shooting them this time :huh .

Hey there Obecanobe, I saw one of these Ants for the first time last year out at Werribee.

I was shocked at the size of it compared to the tiny Black Ants and the little Brown Sugar Ants I have seen in my yard.

The pincers are so big they look like the Ant should be in the Amazon

I bet it dang well hurt when it grabbed you too!

Excellent Series, frightfull looking head .... Skippy
