This is a stinging wasp but it is very timid. The milkweed is a yellow variety which I purchased from a seed company.
Thread-waisted wasps are parasitic. They paralyze and capture spiders and various larva and carry them to their dens. Eggs are laid on the paralyzed prey and when they hatch they consume the prey. Most of these wasps are solitary unlike honey bees which live in large colonies.

The NC Coastal Land Trust hosted its Flytrap Frolic in the Stanley Rehdar Carnivorous Plant garden. This is the first time I have seen the Thread Leaf Sundew (Drosera filiformis Raf.) in the garden. This species is supposed to be expatriated from New Hanover County (plants.usda.gov/core/profile?symbol=DRFI), so it was a special treat to see it. Perhaps it was planted from a cultivar? Regardless, its a beautiful plant.
These appear to be listed as "Significantly Rare" in North Carolina (www.ncwildflower.org/plant_galleries/carnivorous).

Leptotyphlops scutifrons - Peter's Thread Snake. From uMnambiti KwaZulu-Natal. South Africa 🇿🇦.
These snakes are considered as a fossorial spieces due to there lifestyle of living underground.
I knitted the white silk into an I-cord. I then dyed the silk using acid dyes. I unknitted the silk and crocheted into a continuous necklace.

The 2 yellow ones are vintage crocheted thread holders approx 3". They were used to hold darning thread and has a felt circle lining the inside lid to hold your needles. I crocheted the red one making it a little bigger to hold tatting threads for taking along with me to crochet on the go.
I had taken a skein of fiber to Maine, hoping to create a weaving (which I did . . . see below) . . . But first I needed to wind the threads into a manageable shape, so used a cut-off paper towel roll which did the trick!
I was having fun using the woven piece for still life creations from our beach walks . . . which only enhanced the enjoyment of the whole process!
My wife's sewing box. When we first met she used to make her own dresses but latterly she mostly did cross-stitch embroidery. Now, I occasionally use a needle and thread to sew on the odd button.

It is not unusual to find dedicated rooms within hospitals, asylums or other sanitary facilities. This time I stumbled upon a textile workshop. Threading machines, spools and fabric were still all over the place and this particular spool stood near the window, bathing in sunlight, as if it was trying to get a glance of the outer world while waiting for its azure prince to come to its rescue.
- Treatment: Pre-treatment in camera raw, curves, some constrast and color layers, color and texture overlays.

Yesterday my wife found this insect on our deck coffee table. I initially identified it as a Northern Walking Stick Nymph but when I look at my macro photo noticed that some aspects of the insects; body were off. First, it had a true bug head and piecing mouthparts, like an assassin bug. Second its' thorax was shaped different.
I then decided to compare it to a Water Scorpion. However it didn't have a breathing tube and the antenna were way too long and thin. I was stumped but then remembered there was an Assassin Bug that was really delicate looking. I did some searching and identified it to sub-family, the thread-legged bug (I can't find a way to I.D. it to species).
It isn't surprising I've never seen this insect before. Thanks to my wife's sharp eyes and the bug right on our coffee table, I may never have seen it..
