That must be how I've done it in the past but no X this time. I'll see if my browser is now blocking some script it should be allowing. Thanks :)

Raven...if you run your cursor over the lower left corner you should see a red X for deleting, but not necessary in this instance.

Thanks so much Raeven & Hunter! By the way, it's perfectly OK for 2 people to post suggestions.

Really impressive pictures. I took some the other day of the same wasp and had no idea it was so hairy! Fantastic.

Don't delete it, you included a better common name than I did.

Oof !cannot find a way to delete my suggestion (which is odd since I know I've done it before when I posted at the same time as someone else)
