On Sunday, as I was traversing our entryway, I happened to glance out and see something new. I kept an eye on it and, sure enough, I eventually saw a large insect working away. I’m guessing wasp – it was black with white stripes. Whatever it was, it looked like something I didn’t want to get to close too. Still, I couldn’t resist taking the camera out.
A zoom lens is definitely preferred for close ups in a case like this.
Can’t really blame a wasp for choosing a location with a view.
More fun with the zoom lens.
That evening I sprayed the wasp nest. I felt kind of bad doing it, but obviously we can’t have a wasp nest on our front stop. I’ve been keeping an eye on it and I think (I hope) we’re in the clear.
