I'm no expert, but I think that's a hornet.
Tweetie - interesting choice as the name of a cat. Short for Tweetie Pie, by chance?
Tweetie's lucky that there's a screen.
Thanks for sharing.

I'd call it a yellow jacket but you're probably right. As well as adventurous, she's bright-eyed and sociable: started out as "Sweetie" but...

It is a wasp

**Bob Harris** · 09-01-2012, 08:25 PM

No matter what you call it, I think it is a great photo. The screen gives a very interesting feel, great job.

**Schraubstock** · 09-01-2012, 10:42 PM

Agreed

**eaglem** · 09-02-2012, 12:59 AM

One of those "right moment" type shots.

Bee, wasp, whatever. Who cares. I love this shot. Well done and the screen adds so much to it. Who knew.

It is very funny shot.
Cats always try to catch whatever they see. fly, bee, wasp,cockroach...

That is great timing I like it.

Thanks, folks! One of my daughter's photos a while back tipped me off to the possibilities of through-the-screen shots. Take this as a testament to the "relax on the porch with a cold one & camera handy" technique. ;~)

Indeed l did. I'm not sure this is a great sample of the lens's special qualities but I'm sure it made for a better photograph.
