After Much Despair, And Jealousy; I've Finally Obtained Myself, A [Carebara Sp.] Queen. I Located Her, Clinging Upon A White Pillar Located Outside The 'Hot Spot' - A Bank Which I Usually Frequent For Queens. I Was Simply Stunned, I Initially Thought That My Mind Was Intoxicated, But Upon A Double-Backtrack - It Was Proven Otherwise.
I've Also Found Another Queen, Same Species I Believe. But She Was Deceased By That Time, Probably Due To An Idiot Stepping On Her. Regardless, I Was More Than Grateful; Since At Least I Was Able To Acquired One. It Was Around The Standard Night Search, In Which I Found Them - 7:30 P.M. ~ 9:00 P.M. Considering That Other Carebara Queens Might Fly Soon [Where I'm Situated At, I Know They've Flown Already], I've Decided That They'll All Be Included Onto This Single Journal; Provided I Attained More Of Them First.

The First Carebara Queen That I've Ever Caught, It's Interesting To Note That; At Far Glance, She Looked Completely Black. But Upon Closer Inspection, Revealed That Her Thorax Was More Of A Darkish-Purple. She Also Has Yellowish Hair Strands, From Head To Gaster. She's Longer Than 1.5 Centimeters, Definitely More Than 2 Including Her Wings.
Unlike Most Queens Which I Usually Housed, Who Would Usually Trash About As Soon As They Were Tubed. This Queen Didn't Exhibit Such Behavior, In Fact She Seemed Calm & Relax Regarding The Whole Situation. Even Big-Waved Vibrations Never Seemed To Bother Her, At All. I'm Wondering Whether She's Too Exhausted To Fight Back - Since The Winds Here Were Fierce, Or Perhaps It's More Of A Trait In Her Respective Species.
EDIT: Anyhow, I'll Be Sure To Keep You All Updated With Her Progress.
