Interesting picture. I've been fascinated these last few nights by the variety of insects that flock to one of our family room windows at night when a light is on.
Interesting word verification right now: 'thanks Garden"

Hi Lorraine,
very nice. The wasp is probably looking for food. This year, the wasps are very aggressive. Take care of yourself. Dear greetings Christel

Good eye Lorraine. These guys aren't to bad. It's the big black and white hornets I am not fond of. An interesting angle and pov.
