Siafu

Here in Tanzania there's all kinds of wildlife to keep you on your toes.  Today, meet Siafu - biting ants.  They aren't as big as in Hollywood, but they certainly can bite!  After rain, it's quite common to see trails of Siafu around the place.  Paul has already had the misfortune to step in one of these trails, to find Siafu running up and down his legs and biting him all over within seconds (OUCH!)
Anything that gets in the path of Siafu is attacked, so on this particular day we had to divert their path with kerosene to keep the chickens and pig safe.

Here are a few (slightly blurry) shots of the Siafu making their way across the garden.
