Peaceful Coexistence ... for Wing Wednesday

Hundreds of insects were having a feast on the beautiful White Powder Puff bushes at the Florida Botanical Gardens.

Usually you don't see them all 'hanging out' together, but there was plenty to go around, and this wasp, honey bee, and black Carpenter Bee were enjoying the bounty together.

They're very wise........

 

White Powder Puff

(Calliandra haematocephala)

 

If anyone knows the ID on the wasp, I'd appreciate the info :)

HWW! :)

Thanks to Judy Gallagher for ID--- probably

Campsomeris plumipes

 

(the map says "Ridgecrest' but the Botanical Gardens is located South of it...)
