Found this one wandering around the pool.  Is this indeed a queen or have I failed...lol.

 

Any idea what kind...I know my pics are not great...getting a better camera.

 

Thank you,

 

Rob

Flew in my area too although found no queens. Wish they weren’t early fliers based on their flight time but it is good to see that they are already starting their flights.

Keeping:

3x - S. molesta (colonies and single queen)                1x - C. nearcticus (founding but no eggs)   (y) New!

1x - C. chromaiodes (colony)                                       1x - C. subbarbatus (founding)  

1x - F. subsericea (founding)                                        1x - T. sessile (mega colony)

3x - P. imparis (colonies)  

2x - L. neoniger (founding)

Nice.  Thank you.  She was just wandering around the pool.  Glad to have found her.
