Ants are walking in a line that is invisible. Ants walks are all of the same pattern either small or, what ever their species are, where ever they live.
Sometimes we wipe the ants away but instantly they come back and make up the same line again.
If we take a picture of an ants line at one place and connect it to another picture taken at another place it always makes one line.

Ants lines remind me of lines of people walking, of roads, of highways and even of the blood vessels.
We can find the same pattern within the social life of humans, animals and insects.
