A close-up image captures a small, conical ant hill formed from dark brown, lumpy soil, with a distinct central opening. Located on the ground in Silvino Lobos, Philippines, the immediate environment consists of moist soil intermingled with scattered small green plant sprouts and larger green leaves. A single dark-bodied ant, exhibiting lighter markings on its abdomen, is positioned on the ant hill near the upper right edge of the central opening. The scene is illuminated by natural light, showing uniform detail across the soil and vegetation.
