Termes on the Wing

 After several weeks of dry weather, we had a nice drop of rain. That prompted the local Termes species to initiate a nuptial flight. 


The mound was covered with hundreds of termites that took to the wing.
The termites were avidly eaten by birds and lizards and within 15 minutes it was all over.
