Collective ingelligence - ants

Look to the ant, thou sluggard! Consider her ways and be wise.
Proverbs 6:6


Wonders of the nature - an anthill full of wise, hard working and quite intelligent creatures.

So well organized under that absolute monarchy - all for the Queen!

"The colonies are sometimes described as superorganisms because the ants appear to operate as a unified entity, collectively working together to support the colony" (wikipedia)

Meeting at the well-trodden ant path and exchanging news and ideas using those antennas on their heads.

All thinking for the best and how to survive the next winter under snow and ice.

Or should we just move to another region?

Brain at work, purpose, goals, reactions to changing conditions, discovery of rich food source where to take them all.

Instincts?

Communication skills?

Thinking?

From where?

  1. They are so amazing and teach us humility... there are still some things we do not know about Creation.
