My Crematogaster journal is missing. It’s actually misplaced in General Ant Keeping.

I let them go so I could continue to study them in the wild lol. I marked the queen with a green dot, so whenever I see her colony around my property I peek in on them to see how they're doing. This last August the colony produced several hundred males and 4-5 queens. I never saw the queens leave (I probably wasn't home for it), but I saw the males fly away.

That moment when you did several pages of listing and then deleted the tab on accident before saving it.
