Eco Friendly Ant Hills Discovery

Eco Friendly Hills
      Tamale, Ghana Africa is so blessed with this natural, beautiful unique  hills  and strange to every one eyes. I felt captivated and amazed with this wonderful creation that is why every time I saw the hills along the street I really stop and pose for picture on it. I learned new knowledge from this creation of  hills and why it is being built there.
       When I first arrived in Tamale Ghana, Africa for our Novice Training last  February 2015 I was amazed by what I saw on nearby streets. I was really fascinated by this large and tall hills made up of mud every time I see when we stroll along the roads in Tamale. Guess who built it? Yes Ants are responsible for all of this hills and that is why they called it as Ant Hills.
 
Ecological Importance

Ants play an important role in the environment.
Ants turn and aerate the soil, allowing water and oxygen to reach plant roots. 
Ants take seeds down into their tunnel to eat the nutritious elaiosomes that are part of the seed.
.
One advantage of this very beautiful and unique creation  was to help the nature more attractive and eco- friendly as well.
OMG ! I can't resist to have a photo with this hills..
One of the most unique and beautiful attraction in Tamale, Ghana Africa was the Ant Hills being built by ants and it's huge enough that  you cannot resist to become curious how it was built. Many of this eco- friendly hills can be found along the roads, forested area and plain areas and usually along the roads..
This ant hill is just located at the vicinity of St. Peter and Paul Parish Church near the grotto Tamale, Ghana Africa. It was taken during one of our free time.

How can I resist to pose with this eco friendly ant hills located near Bagabaga College Tamale Ghana Africa. This photo was taken at the compound of the church during our meeting with a Parish Priest.

How I wish  there is also a  huge ant hills in my country but anyway my experience is meaningful in Tamale since we have a purpose there not just having a tour on our free time. But at the end of the day I learned something new that ecological balance is important in every place.
