 Invertober is back! This is the drawing challenge where you draw an invertebrate every day.  It's for everyone and *mandatory.* Last year they had no ants on the list! I was very upset... this year there is one ant... an improvement, but still so much more room to grow!

Hoping to see at least 10 ants next year. 

[I apologize for the mangled scientific names in the alt text I'm at work and don't have time to type all of them up. If someone can point to correct text I'd appreciate it.]

 @134318c2 
I'm just here for all the people who've done old-style digital logic labs posting pics of 7404 (hex inverter) chips looking like bugs ... 
 @134318c2 Probably you should use the hashtag? 
 It *is* mandatory. I just checked. 

The drawing challenge is for everyone— but also required. No ambiguity here. 
 @134318c2 is red velvet ant not an ant? I see little fire ant. That's a whole two ants?
