This morning, I stopped on the street and suddenly noticed something.
I couldn’t see any ants.
Where did they go?
Is it because it’s winter?
Are they all living underground now?
Those little friends were always rushing around, busy and fast.
If they really stay under the ground all winter, wouldn’t that feel suffocating?
(I’m not even sure if that’s true, honestly.)
I could find the answer in seconds with a few taps on my phone.
But I won’t.
I’ll just assume they’re doing fine on their own.
By the way, because I worried they might have trouble finding food in winter,
I tossed two slices of bread on the ground.
That was not littering.
Not at all.
