What do You Have to do to Get a Drink Around Here?

Monday, 4 August 2025

Water! From a purely biological point of view water has a number of properties that are paramount for the proliferation of life on this – or any other – planet. Its life giving and sustaining properties is what sets it apart from all other substances.

From the largest mammal to the tiniest insect we all have to drink. If we don’t we die. Here, we focus on the little guys, the ones which you can hardly imagine need much water. Indeed, sometimes they can be in danger of being carried away in their enthusiasm to sate their thirst. Thanks to some wonderfully macrophotography we get to see this most vital of functions being carried out – with some gusto – by a host of insects.

Time For A Quick Drink

Sunday, 4 April 2010


Going out to work each day to provide for that huge (and growing) family back home is no joke.  In fact it's hard work and after a day's foraging there is nothing like a swift pint down the pub to put things back on track.  OK, so this ant isn't exactly in his local hostelry but the thirst is comparable at the very least.

Here he is taking a gulp of a mixture of honey and ant food.  Yes, the shot is posed (as it were) but you have to admit that for a shot of an ant actually drinking then this is posed to perfection.
