Paper Wasp · **1 Like**

Small paper wasps having a nest in our garden.
I isolated this one. Heavily cropped and reduced.
I could only establish that they are from the Genus Ropalidia and about 10mm long.
Second image gives an idea on how well they blend in with their nest. (Focus on the one top left)
Thanks for looking.

Cool, nice capture. Its always neat to someone capture a moment in "a day in a life" of the insect world

Thank you. Since trying my hand at close-up/macro I've learned to "see" rather than just look. Wonderful small world out there! :-)
