My Life as an Ant

By Luckie

My name is Tiny and I am a worker ant and I live in a garden. I have some interesting things that happen to me here. You would be so surprised!

First let me tell you a little about me. I live with many other ants and have lots of friends. We gather food, and care for our Queen and the Babies and we protect our colony and surrounding area.

These babies can be a real handful! One day I was minding my own business and doing my work in the bed when one of the more curious Babies decided to go and try and venture out on there own and be curious shall we say. What a disaster! The Queen was looking all over for the Baby and I was trying to make excuses and at the same time get that Baby to come back and behave! This particular one is such a terror in the bed. He is always out and about and wanting to explore and listen to no one. Thank heavens as the Queen turned her back I saw the Baby and was able to grab him and hand him right over to her and she was none the wiser!
