While comfortably self isolating at home, our terrible windows let in this paper wasp female, presumably looking for a warm place. I was really excited as I could add her to the Never Home Alone: The Wild Life of Homes iNaturalist project. It’s a really fun project (especially right now) cataloging the animal life of homes. She was very reluctant to fly (although reacted to looming stimuli, IE flashes) and posed nicely for several photos. We eventually gave her a meal of our homemade brown sugar syrup before sending her on her way. Thanks again for visiting, little wasp, you brightened my day!
