Eureka! I finally figured out macro with my wasp and fly. DUH! It is very difficult!
Love the colours :)
Thanks so much! I don't know much about wasps. I found an almost identical match. :)
this is a Paper wasp, probably Polystes fuscatus
I can't confirm an ID on this wasp. Paper or Potter. I have looked through so many guides and photos. No exact match. HELP!
Yes, I already bothered and took photos earlier, it really was trying to avoid me in the last photo I just added.
wow !!
You are capturing them from their hideouts too !!ha ha
