One blue, one black—two little heads with long tentacles poked out from the entrance of the ant nest, quickly darted out, climbed to the top of the stump, and stood at a high vantage point to look out into the distance.
They gazed at the arbor trees in the distance, taller than mountains, lush and towering like peaks, and gave out a chorus of "Waa wow!" in amazement.
