Diary of observing ants

Time flies like a horse, and one day has passed. I believe everyone has gained a lot from this day. It needs to be summarized and recorded in the diary. In order to save you the headache of writing a diary, the following is a diary of observing ants that I have compiled for you. It is for reference only. Let’s take a look together. Diary of Observing Ants 1

This semester we were given a set of scientific learning tools. I thought it was very interesting, so I spent Sunday studying it and planned to catch a few ants for observation.

In the afternoon I found an ant hole downstairs. I put a fried peanut next to the ant hole. An ant found it, touched it, and then moved back. After a while, it came over to touch it again, then went back again, and repeated this several times. At this time, a few more ants came. After a while, more and more ants gathered, so my sister and I caught five of them and put them in a transparent school tool like a small box. After I got home, I put a small piece of steamed bun in and started observing the ants.

Using the magnifying glass in the school supplies, I discovered that ants are made up of three small "sesame seeds". The head and belly are black, like two bulging sesame seeds, and the middle is yellow-brown, like a deflated sesame seed; its body is shiny; there are two antennae on the ant's head, which often shake gently. ; Ants have long and thin legs and can run very fast.

Although peanuts and steamed buns are many times larger than the body of an ant, they can unite to push food. Through this observation, I feel that ants are united, hard-working animals that are not afraid of difficulties. Diary of Observing Ants 2

The weather was gloomy this afternoon, so the teacher took a few of our friends to the field to observe autumn.

We were walking along the path in the field, and suddenly we found a group of small brown ants at our feet, which seemed to have lost their way. Yes, I observed carefully for a while and found that they were looking for food. Woolen cloth. Look, they are busy around a piece of bread crumbs, moving up and down, left and right. Some pushed, some pulled, some carried... through their unremitting efforts, the bread crumbs were finally transported to the hole. Then, a group of little ants worked together to push a fat fly to the entrance of the hole, but the hole was too small, so they couldn't push it in. When Xiaoru and I were watching a joke, we suddenly saw some little ants crawling in. On the head of the fly, some climbed to the tail of the fly, and some climbed to the body. They no longer pushed and pulled, but bit with their mouths. A miracle happened. After a while, the giant creature was cut into pieces by the little ants. Each of them held a small piece of fly meat in their mouths and quickly transported the flies to the hole. This time my eyes were opened.

It turns out that the power of the collective is so powerful! Diary of Observing Ants 3

I went to observe ants at noon today. When it came out of its cave, I saw a dozen ants, and then these ants walked towards a clump of grass. When I got to the finish line, I saw it was just a small black dot.

I took a closer look, oh! It turned out to be a relatively small dead cricket. The strength of the ants was really great. They moved the dead cricket forward two steps, but the cricket was too big compared to the ants, so they couldn't move it. One ant seemed to have figured out a way and went back to the cave to call some larger ants. Maybe these ants are the "Hercules" among them, right? It’s true! As soon as these ants arrived, they quickly moved the dead cricket back to the cave.

Although ants are small and inconspicuous, they can carry heavy things home together, so we must not look down upon them. Diary of Observing Ants 4

There is an ant nest downstairs in my house, but generally the ants will not come out. When I went downstairs to play yesterday afternoon, there were so many ants in front of the door that I couldn't even walk. I still went down on my skateboard and crushed many ants to death.

When I got up this morning, the sky was gloomy, waiting for it to rain. When I finished breakfast, it was raining, and it was raining heavily. Suddenly, I remembered a proverb: "If ants move across the aisle, there will be heavy rain tomorrow." It really works.

These words are very clever, and they all come from the summaries of ancient people. There are also some very clever proverbs, such as: "The chickens stay late, the ducks crow happily, and the wind and rain will come soon" and so on. We must learn from ancient people.

Friend, do you want to know how ants live? Then come with me! Everyone probably doesn't know about the ants that live in groups on the grass. The reason why they know it may be because it is a "strong man".

At noon today, I accidentally saw an ant downstairs. This ant saw a grain of rice, so he tried to lift the grain of rice. The ant was worthy of being the "Hercules" of insects and lifted the grain of rice at once, but it couldn't walk far and ran out of energy, so it shouted five or six An ant comes to carry a grain of rice. Sure enough, with more people and greater strength, they were able to lift the rice grains in no time, but they encountered a new problem - how to put the rice grains into the hole.

This question made the ant think about it for a long time. Finally, an ant bit the rice out of the sky. Put the rice grains in. This rice grain should be dedicated to the ant king, otherwise who would chase after a grain of rice so hard? I think if they don’t unite and cooperate, where would the ant kingdom come from?

I am willing to hold your hand and visit Ant Country. Diary of Observing Ants 6

There is an ant hole in front of my house, and there are many ants in it. I often put food for them, and they are attracted by the scent every time, and they can finish the food every time.

The little ant has a small body, a black head and a body, and is very cute. Today I was observing the little ants, and I found that the little ants were missing. I thought they were sleeping, so I shouted to the hole: Little ants, get up! Suddenly an ant came out. I put it on my hand. It seemed to be drunk and staggered on my palm. Then I saw the second and third ants... They all wanted to be drunk. I hid quickly, for fear that the ants would crawl on me. I thought about it and suddenly remembered: I haven’t put food for them today! You must have missed breakfast, you are so hungry!

After I took the food, I saw not a single ant, probably back in the hole. As soon as I put the food down, I saw the little ants coming out, all scrambling to move the food!

Look, the little ants are so worth observing! Diary of Observing Ants 7

Yesterday, I saw ants moving things in groups without any mistakes. But my classmates said they had no eyes, so I decided to do an experiment: Do ants have eyes?

I caught an ant and placed a small piece of sausage twenty centimeters away from it. After a while, it crawled over, but the route was not a straight line. Is it myopia? I placed the sausage ten centimeters away from it again, but the path was still crooked. That could be farsightedness. Thinking of this, I placed the sausage half a meter away from it, but I still made a lot of mistakes. I was puzzled, but accidentally knocked over a basin of water. This is great, the water around the ant surrounds it in a "C" shape. It took many attempts before it finally found the exit. It turns out that ants have no eyes.

So, how do ants identify themselves? I placed a leaf that is familiar to almost all ants about twenty centimeters away from it. This time, the ants traveled a lot less distance. Hearing? No way, the food I put in was a soft landing. At this time, I smelled the different smells of sausage and vegetable leaves, which was very subtle. I finally got the answer. Ants rely on their sense of smell to find food. Diary of Observing Ants 8

Today I was going out to play. When I was closing the door, I found a biscuit on the corner of the door. When I got home, I looked at the biscuit again and said, "Ah! Why are there so many ants?" ?" I shouted.

When my mother heard this, she rushed over and said, "Sweep the cookies out quickly, otherwise there will be ants everywhere in the house." I said: "Wait, let me observe first." I found a magnifying glass, and I had a question: "Why do ants walk in a row?" I looked at the science book, and it said that ants leave behind when they walk. A kind of pheromone that allows the ants behind to take the same route. If we touch the ants' route with our hands or branches, it will interfere with the ants' pheromone, so that the ants will lose their way and run around.

It seems that we should observe the things around us while playing. Diary of Observing Ants 9

This afternoon, I caught three ants on a mango tree in the community. I put them in a little breathable bottle I made. As soon as these little guys are in the bottle, they start looking for a way out, running around like crazy filling the bottle.

Finally, they ran out of energy and stayed where they were. I thought: They must be hungry. So, I took some cake from the refrigerator and gave it to them. Unexpectedly, they were really hungry, so they immediately climbed onto the cake and ate it with gusto. I watched their bodies carefully while they were eating. Their bodies are divided into three parts: head, abdomen and tail. Each of them has a pair of antennae on its head, which are used to communicate with its companions. There are three legs on the left and right sides of its abdomen and tail, which are used for walking.

After observing its body, I came up with a wonderful idea: Are ants afraid of water? I overlapped the two bottles. I filled the lower bottle with water and placed the ant bottle on top. That's when my experiment began. The ants began to react. They froze under the bottle one by one, as if they were petrified. It turns out that ants are afraid of water.

Ants are really interesting. I will also observe other small insects next time. Diary of Observing Ants 10

On this day, my grandfather and I went to the park to observe ants.

Ants have two long tentacles. When they find a large piece of food, they usually use their tentacles to call other ants. Ants have six legs and two large jaws under the tentacles. Red ants often capture the eggs of black ants and use them as slaves. This is how the big bullies the small. Every hot summer afternoon, we can often see a team of red ants going out on an expedition. There are 500 red ants attacking the nest of black ants. In this way, the black ants are in danger all the time, because the red ants will also attack the black ants' nests all the time. On the way home, no matter how strong the wind was and how dangerous it was, the red ants clung to the eggs of the black ants. Sometimes the black ants were blown into the river by the wind and would be eaten by big fish... …!

Why do red ants take away the eggs of black ants and take them back as slaves? I thought: It must be that the red ants are too lazy. I love observing ants! Diary of Observing Ants 11

I was going to go out to play that day. When I closed the door, I found a biscuit in the corner of the door. When I got home, I looked at the biscuit again: "Ah! Why are there so many Ants?" I shouted. When my mother heard it, she rushed over and said, "Sweep the cookies out quickly, otherwise the house will be full of ants." I said, "Wait, let me observe first." I found a magnifying glass, and I had a question: "Why do ants walk in a row?" I read a science book, and it said that ants leave behind when they walk. A kind of pheromone that allows the ants behind to take the same route. If we touch the ants' route with our hands or branches, it will interfere with the ants' pheromones, so that the ants will lose their way and run around.

It seems that we should really observe the things around us while playing. Diary of Observing Ants 12

One day, I went to water the flowers in my garden and accidentally discovered an ant hole. At that time, I was watering the bougainvillea and found many ants crawling out of the water. When I looked carefully, I saw an ant hole. This ant hole is only a few centimeters wide, but there are thousands of ants living in it. So interesting!

After a while, a little bug passed by the ant hole. Suddenly, a few ants came out of the ant hole. These ants and bugs sprayed out a liquid, which instantly paralyzed the bugs. Then a few more ants came out of the ant hole and dragged the bugs into the ant hole. .

I felt strange, so I asked my dad: "What is the liquid that the ants spray out?" My dad told me: "That is formic acid, which is one of the ants' attack weapons, specially used to paralyze them. "Insects."

The next day, I went to the garden again and saw a group of ants and a spider fighting. The two sides were biting and spraying formic acid, and they still couldn't separate for more than ten minutes. At this time, a large group of ants came to help and sprayed out another wave of formic acid. This time the spider was finally paralyzed, and the ants dragged the spider back to the ant hole.

Ants are so powerful. It turns out that their magic weapon to defeat insects is formic acid. Diary of Observing Ants 13

I live on the first floor, and there are always a lot of little ants crawling in the house. Once, I finished eating biscuits in the house, and some of the biscuit crumbs fell to the ground. After a while, a little ant came over. It touched the biscuit crumbs with its small tentacles, tried it, and seemed unable to move it, and then left. At first I thought it had given up carrying it, but unexpectedly, a dozen little ants came over in a mighty manner, and they worked together to move away the biscuit crumbs.

Such small ants can actually carry food much larger than their bodies. I think: This is because of the ants’ spirit of solidarity and mutual help. I also want to be like the little ant and have the spirit of unity and mutual help. If each of us has this spirit, what difficulties can we not overcome?

I admire the little ant. Diary of Observing Ants 14

The whole body is black and has six tiny legs. This is the appearance of an ant.

One day, my biscuit accidentally fell to the ground, and I had an idea: I can use it to feed ants! So, I took the biscuit and went outside. I found an ant on the ground, so I put the biscuit down. When I put it down, the biscuit broke into two halves. The ant immediately noticed it and tried to move it by itself. , but for it, biscuits are really a huge thing.

He had no choice but to call his companions to help. They attacked the biscuit in a mighty manner. Everyone dragged me, lifting the biscuit and moving it millimeter by millimeter in the direction in which it came. To reach their "home", they have to go through a "tunnel". The mouth of the "tunnel" is too small, and they can't get in even though they tried their best. But they still didn't get frustrated, and none of the ants escaped. In the end, they got through the "tunnel" by breaking the biscuits into pieces. Although the ant is so small, we can't hurt it because it is united and friendly and deserves our learning and admiration!

This is the ant - a cute and united elf. Diary of Observing Ants 15

The cute little ants aroused my interest. I looked around for cute little ants.

So I put a candy on the ground, and after a while, many ants came out. I carefully caught a little ant. The little ant was wearing black clothes and had a small ant on his head. It has two sensitive antennae, a pair of black and bright eyes, and its body is like a colon. After a while, I let it go. I continued to observe the whereabouts of the little ant, and I saw it "talking" to its companions. I looked at the candy and saw that the candy was slowly moving. It turned out that dozens of little ants were crawling! I looked carefully and saw that the candy had reached the ant hole! After a while, I hit a fly and placed it at the entrance of the ant hole. The fly was not completely dead. An ant saw the pie falling from the sky. It hurriedly called a dozen ants. Everyone swarmed up and took the pie. The flies were biting all over the ground, and the flies died in the mouths of these little ants. Seeing such a good meal, the ants must be sweeter than eating honey. I stared at this group of little creatures and couldn't help but stand in awe, thinking, "They can all be united. Shouldn't we humans be like this more?
