European Paper Wasp
Andrew Lin, awesome photographer and stand-up fellow. He makes my job here SO easy these days! He took this awesome European Paper Wasp photo, and had this to say:
Sign of spring: The European Paper Wasps are nectar-ing up for
the summer.
The long, hard winter is over (well, as hard as it gets in California,
below the snow line, anyway). Thar be bugs here!
Yar, Andrew!
Looks like this week is going to be an impromptu “Week of Andrew Lin!” Friday we’ll have a really interesting spider picture from him as well! Stay tuned!
Stumble It!
