Auto pilot

Now in summer when the windows are open, the occasional bee or wasp comes in. And time and again I'm surprised about their stupidity: they struggle to get out again even if they are just a few centimetres away from freedom. So when I'm around, I mostly "save" them by gently guiding them outside. That's what I did with this specimen as well - after quickly taking some photos of her.

Note to self: Insects inside have to (!!!) be shot using a tripod!

  1. I think the gender identification of the wasp was accurate. Good job!

    Who else but a female of any species could be so directionally challenged ?

  2. First of all, it's a bee. And second of all: Hey! :|
