Hi Jubeyjubes, you've got a queen that has lost its wings here. It's probably a Camponotus, but I can't be sure, so I think it might have to remain unknown at this stage. Cheers, Jon

Thanks Jon! I was thinking that's what it was. There are at least 4 of them I have seen in the last day so busy times in the ant world.

Hi Jubeyjubes - just had another look and the fourth photo shows the head pretty well, so confident now that it is Camponotus. Cheers, Jon
