large ant, there are plenty of these guys in this forest and this one is larger and have bulkier heads than the usual ones so I suspect that they are soldiers

I suspect that this is a worker carrying larvae

uber-camo

tiny caterpillar

flamboyant cricket

a toad

spiders

this one was really tiny, probably 0.25cm

Cool, I want to go. I think the ants are carpenter ants?

The ant is Camponotus gigas, one of the worlds largest ants. Very cool.

those are some really great pictures. I am super impressed with the size of the soldier ant. If you have more pic's you should post them.

The spider is S. pallidus or pallida, a spitting spider, looks like a male to me. And they can pin down that large ant.
