food or shelter?

This is about ants.
This time, there have been few ant colonies at home. I dropped a pinch of sugar and that attracted them. No surprise(although it took longer than I expected). When I stopped using the laptop and after sometime when its lying there, I noticed some ants there. I didnt understand why wud they come if sugar is also present. Later I guessed that it came for the warmth of the laptop(these days its cold), because after a while it went back to the sugar. I have no idea how it could sense the heat. smell I can understand. Or was it just a coincidence? Maybe I should try another time.
I also found that ants are nice beings than most ppl think. They are friendly. They come with me wherever I go. Few even work with me.

Your trip to India is long due and it shows :)

I know its in December, let us know when it is - you need some real "people" around you.
 
:) Coming on dec end.
as for this post, its not bcos i dont have some real "people" around me.
 
Ha! Ha! Are u planning for a career shift to National Geographic? But, on a serious note, observing ants and birds is a very interesting thing... And they teach us quite a few things! But, that requires loads of patience. Do keep a journal of all their activities and you would see a lot of similarity in their activities and ours.... kinda like finding the patterns among pages of undecipherable codes and breaking it :) Have you tried it?
 
I havent maintained any history of these things bcos i have them in my mind(read:i was lazy to pen them). But yeah, most of the animal activities like dogs and crows(thats the only things i had enough oppurtunity to observe) are quite interesting(esp crows) and relate to us in more deeper sense.
Also, if u had/have any interesting encounters with non-humans do post them in ur blog sometime.
 
It's appropriate time to make some plans for the longer term and it's time to be happy.

I've learn this submit and if I could I want to suggest you few fascinating things or advice. Maybe you can write subsequent articles referring to this article. I desire to learn more things approximately it!
