Fortunately for me this wasp was to busy gathering nectar to be considered about my presence. When it comes to wasps I'd rather stay a good distance away or be armed with bug spray. In this case the telephoto lens gave me enough space to feel comfortable hanging around and watching him work.
Nice picture, Cindy. I was just telling my son that one got in my office today and I sucked him up in the vacuum. I'm sure he didn't like that, but he was starting to bug me. 8-)
Hi Cindy, I had forgotten about those black wasps. They are pretty mean if disturbed and they don't give up once they decide someone is a threat to them. Great photo.
