Description

I noticed this ant on the headlight cover of the one car.

Don't know why it was airing it's digestive contents like that, but it stood with the drip hanging in it's jaws for quite a few minutes before sucking it back in.

I've seen a number of different insects do this before, but most simply excrete the drop - not re-absorb it.
