    Photos Beautiful Ruby & Emerald colours of the Ruby-tailed wasp

    So the annual pilgrimage to my garden might have started today for the ruby-tailed wasps, that seem to make a habit of returning year on year. The first time I have seen them this year (might not see them again for ages) - today there were 2 smaller males and this larger female, each of the three occasionally landing on the brickwork.

    This one is handheld (rare for me that) but these little parasitic flyers are notoriously difficult to get close to as they just don't like to stay still...





    Paul.
