the wasps came out to play in early spring thinking it was
summer and died as the weather worsened. They will probably
be back towards the end of July.

Last year my dad ate a wasp with strawberries and ice
cream.
I would have warned him as he scooped it up, because I'm not
normally the sort who laughs at other's misfortunes, but it
was all over so fast.
True story.

That can be dangerous, ice cream can cause blinding
headaches.

You're right. I should have warned him before the next
spoonfull :(

I haven't either. The wasp/dad/ice cream inscident was
last year.

They are waiting... waiting for us... one wrong move and
it's stripey yellow curtains for us.

it's funny you mention it, because I noticed the same thing,
especially when everything was in bloom and there was not a
wasp/bee in sight taking care of their pollenation duties

I have seen one wasp and one bee so far though, but that is
all, pretty strange if you ask me

I've seen a few bees, I don't mind bees.

wasp's suck though, the don't even make honey

we usually get 10-20 mudwasp 'hives/mudhomes' on the walls
of our house where the wall meets the roof each summer. I
walk around the perimeter of my house with 2 cans of the
wasp killing stuff that can spray 6 feet. I'm proud of my
wasp body count.

I actually saw the first one today. it flew in through my
window really slow and then up and started banging against
the window again to get out... it was a huge fucker, but I
think it had just come out of winter sleep or something,
'cause it was really slow...

It might have been an Waspus Americanass? They are known to
be oversized and slow.

hmm.. quite possible. it was like a wasp that was trying to
be a bumblebee...

I'll have a search for it then!

how is it available? would I have to buy a beck album to get
it, or is there a 12" or something?

yeah, I'm getting that to see if it would be worth hunting
for a 12" or something.. I don't think I will be buying any
beck albums, as he's too.. too much like a radio-show...
good stuff at times, but commercials and crappy tunes in
between.
