A Second One! Pt. 2 - _TNY_9555 (In Explore 15/8 2025)
Back in early August (of 2024) I got lucky and found a cuckoo wasp looking around at the bee hotel and managed several nice shots which was a nice change from their typical behaviour which ususally is rather nervous.
After briefly going inside and showing my wife the great photos I got of it I decided to return and discovered that it was still there! And not only that, there was also a second one close to the first one!
This is the second one which was distinctly smaller so I'm wondering if it perhaps is a male and was trying to hook up with the other one.
