Portraits of a wasp

Found this little one on a plate drying on the rack so I got some shots in before it got turfed out of the house.

Excellent shots. Is the last one him/her waving goodbye as you turfed him out?

Very nice shots. Every time I see something about a wasp I can't help thinking of the Dylan Thomas short story 'A Child's Christmas in Wales'; where, when listing some of the Christmas presents he received as a child, he mentioned “And books which told me everything about the wasp, except why.” It made me laugh, so I thought I'd pass that on... and next time you see a wasp!.

Thanks Dave, that is what I was thinking with that one too.

Cheers for that, not read it myself but I think I get what he's saying. Think I would swap wasps for mosquitoes personally.
