about: I’m Eleanor Spicer Rice. I have a Ph.D. in entomology, where I studied ants and how they shape the natural world. Today, I write about ants and the amazing life with which we spend our days. I hope that we will all take a minute to look down, under, and around us to recognize our own connection with nature. It’s walking across our countertops, resting in our porch plants, singing in our city trees, and sleeping on our foreheads. Once we discover it, I hope we will want to keep it safe.
