"Those Bees That Drill The Rafters"


I lightened this photograph so you can clearly see the subject... a cool black wasp with a white ring around its abdomen.  I didn't know this kind of wasp, but thought it was really pretty.  Myra Robertson at Blue Sky Water Society tells me that it is probably the kind that bores holes in the soffits but does not sting.

I like to go out with Myra to see the place, because we share a reluctance to harm bugs, plants and other living things.  We saw a lot of interesting life that day.
