I'd love to do a study like this in NYC. Many Camponotus species seem to only live hight in the trees. I notice them coming down during the day and going up at night. Ground nesting in a big city can be challenging. I also wonder if in a city are trees subject to the same thermal extremes? It seems like they might not be!
Can we get a little funding a permit and some ropes-n-tackle to find out?
Who knows whats living up in those trees? Could be ANYBODY.

I don't know about trees, but in man-made structures, I rarely find C. pennsylvanicus above the second floor. One time though, I did find Pheidole on the 25th floor of a high-rise.
