@ShannonE: Thank you for the correction friend...am new to world of species and biological terms...learning now...so mistakes happen....
I agree that this is a yellow jacket, but I don't agree with the species posted by Adarsha, as he posted a scientific name of an animal that is not, in fact, a yellow jacket. He links to the correct family on Wikipedia, however.
