I found antlions under my porch! A type of damselfly larvae that digs pits in sandy soil that ants fall into when they walk across it. I've noticed a lot of ant activity in my garden, it seems these guys have finally moved in to correct the imbalance :). I used to hunt these dudes and horny toads in the "badlands" of my youth, packed with cracked red clay and a few hardy species. These dudes thrive quite well.
I love being back at a computer where I can type out the alt thing.
@tippitiwichet Ever watch Enemy Mine? :)
@tippitiwichet If you do get around to watching it, you'll get to see some giant antlions. :)
@NoahPaulLeGies Tremors! A whole series about antlions. Also, Dune.
@NoahPaulLeGies I don't know why I want to reply with "awesome", given how my hunts for cool bugs has also resulted in odd nightmares where their sand traps are on my skin, why the fuck does your reply make me want to see the movie more? Sigh. I guess I just have to admit the adrenaline rush of terror is awesome. I'll move it to the top of the watchlist, thanks :)
