Red & Black Wasp

Red & Black Wasp
1 picture in notes above!

This beautiful red and black wasp is one I often find visiting flowers. It's not aggressive but it does move around a lot, which makes taking pictures a challenge. This one was actually moving slowly and stopped a lot so I managed to get a whole set of wonderful pictures! Thanks once again to Art (Leapfrog) for helping me to identify this lovely insect! :)

Great timing! Maybe the note wasp is a different sex. It is the prettier of the two.
