Colin's Ant Farm

Colin got an ant farm for Christmas. We didn't put ants in it right away because we knew we'd be gone to Germany for Caleb's birth and since coming back to the island we haven't seen any ants. The weather is slightly warmer these days (still by no means what I would call spring for Terceira!) and the other day we came home and parked the jeep next to the sidewalk and saw this...

Right away Colin thought to get his ant farm. We got the ant farm and scooped up some ants and soon they were tunneling away and it looked like this...

Then all of a sudden they really got busy and tunneled even more. I love watching them and checking in to see how much progress they have made since the last time I looked. Colin loves watching them too and too the ant farm in to school for his share day. Here is a video of the ants hard at work:
