On a dripping, chilly afternoon I set out in search of the latest “news” along Piney Woods Church Road. As usual, I found all sorts of fascinating images of water droplets balanced on tree leaves or cradled by blades of grass. I also observed one intrepid red ant braving the elements on a Chinese privet. I spent several minutes photographing it, though most of the time it moved at a determined pace, preventing me from getting a picture in sharp focus. This one was an exception.
