Wasps... Love or loathe them...

Wasps. Most people don't like them but they can prove useful. Not too sure what this one was planning, but it did grab hold of a dandelion seed. To be honest, at first I thought it had maybe been bitten by a spider and had web on it, but on close examination, it was the said seed. Anyhow, either way, I think it was possibly dying as the wasp was rather lethargic, and reasonably co-operative!

They have such amazing jaws - as seen the last image. I did a shot years ago which was all jaws and ever since then, I have been a wasp fan (despite the sting in the tail/tale...)
