A very elegant insect. I'm amazed that they stay together, they look like they're ready to fall apart any minute. _________________ The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time. -Bertrand Russell

I'm not overly keen on wasps but must admit that your photograph shows the paper wasp up beautifully. _________________
