Hmmmm....Ant food?

Zion asked me one day recently what ants like to eat so we decided to do an experiment in the back yard. We put out honey, sugar, and water to see what the ants liked best.
I am sure the neighbors behind our yard would think that we were quite strange. Here we are Zion all dressed up...and she tells me that she thinks she can get the ants to come by playing her sliding whistle and singing to them. It was quite hilarious! The results of our experiment did not live up to our hypothesis...Zion thought they would like ths sugar. Sadly we did not stay out long enough to find out what they like because we found that another creature likes honey and sugar as much more more than ants and they travel faster.....BEES....and we all went running inside! We sent Daddy out when he came home later to recover the ant dishes. (-:
