Wasp

im Anflug

I am not a fan of wasps but this visitor gave me chance to get a close up for Definitely Dreaming. This one was moving very slowly, not sure it was very well but I put it outside after I'd taken a few shots.

Argiope bruennichi, commonly known as the wasp spider, is a species of orb-weaver spider found across Central and Northern Europe, several regions of Asia, plus parts of the Middle east, North Africa and the Azores.Like many other members of the same genus Argiope, this species features distinctive yellow, white and black markings on its abdomen

I cannot always ‘Thank’ everyone individually, for their Visits and ‘Faves’ however, I will always try to respond and thank all those that leave a ‘Comment’. If I do not reply to your 'Comment', it is not because I am ignoring you, it's because I have not seen the 'Comment'.

Thank you to all that take the time to look at my photographs and comment or like them. It really is appreciated. To see more, follow my blog or get post-processing tips please visit www.kevinagar.uk

Called the Wasp Beetle for obvious reasons this longhorn beetle does a great impression of a common wasp, mimicking it in colour and movement. This harmless insect imitates a more dangerous one in order to protect itself!

Wasp beetles are usually seen in bright sunshine scuttling over vegetation. The larvae live in warm, dry, dead wood, such as fence posts and dead branches, and particularly favour willow and birch. The adults can be found feeding on flowers along woodland rides and hedgerows during the summer. Wasp beetles feed on pollen, but females will also eat small insects.

Although rarer in Scotland Wasp Beetles are found throughout the UK, and can be seen from May to July.

A macro of a cute Norwegian wasp enjoying some honey in my garden last year. The lighting conditions were very difficult (very bright sun behind me, shining into a relatively dark area), so the image needed quite a lot of work, and is lacking a bit of sharpness.

I've seen very few wasps this year in comparison to last year when the garden was buzzing with tree wasps, common wasps and these lovely Norwegian wasps.

A wasp nest where an angel once had a hand. The photo was taken at the cemetery in Grybów, Poland.

I took a walk through the forest today and found this wasp nest hanging fairly low, in a tree. I took one rushed shot and slowly waked away.... safe and sound. Phew...

Up close with a Wasp (I think) The more you look into insects the more you realise something isn't as harmful as you think. Many bees look like our stingy friends and I'm not convinced this is the type that plagues our marmalade sandwiches!

I was photographing the wasp when this little fish decided to take a peek out of the water :)

Draving

Found on moss growing on a birch trunk.

Another one of the same wasp (or possibly another wasp, I dunno, they all look the same to me) I uploaded a few days ago.

I've got about 8 million more shots like this but I'll try to only upload one or two more ;)

Thanks for looking
