Description
SENDOFF FOR THE GROOM
A winged male drone ant prepares for its one and only flight, to mate with a future queen in midair. The queen will then start her own colony while the male will eventually die having served its purpose. Unlike bee colonies which can only have one queen, many species of ants have several queens within the nest thus ensuring the continuing survival of the colony.
