[Leica] IMG: Morning Outing

[Jim Nichols]

After yesterday's rainstorms, the grass was still pretty wet this 
morning, but I checked out a busy corner.  Considering his size, this 
ant chose some rugged territory for his morning walk.

I recognized this plant from barnyard adventures of my childhood, but 
never knew the name.  Google tells me it is Horse Nettle, a common weed 
in the Southeast U S, and a member of the Nightshade family.  Can be 
poisonous to livestock if consumed in large quantities.
