JulianI must admit that even though I really don't like wasps in summer - especially when going out to eat outside - they're quite polite when it comes to taking photos of them. If you don't disturb them pollinating flowers, they let you come quite near. Of course you still have to be careful, mustn't move hastily and hear their buzzing all the time, but it's worth it.<br>
Moreover, they're interesting creatures when you see them this detailed - just like any other insect.<br>
