When my family and I were having dinner, suddenly there was a winged ant that landed on our dining table, if you look at its shape, this ant has the same shape as ants in general, but what makes it different is that this ant has wings and can fly like other flying insects, its body has a very elegant color, namely jet black with transparent brown wings. This is not the first time I have found a flying ant, and previously I had also found it on a plant in front of my house, even though this ant has wings, it prefers to spend its time walking and playing on plants like other ants in general

Photographing these ants isn't as difficult as photographing other flying insects, but their small size makes them a bit challenging to capture using a phone camera. I photographed these ants using a macro lens, but because I didn't have enough light, some of the images don't look very detailed.
Okay, everyone, here are some pictures of these ants.
