Sunbathers shelter themselves from the wind


Photographed on the shores of the North Sea in 1977.  I keep expecting one of them to fall victim to a giant ant lion.

    Because falling prey to a regular-sized ant lion would just be silly.

    Hahaha...we have ant lion holes in our barn. My children like to drop ants in them and watch what happens. They have a long-standing grudge against fire ants.

    In NC they're known as 'Doodlebugs'

    In Holland we accuse the Germans to dig these holes, they started to dig them at the WWII front lines and never stopped ...
