it actually looks kind in this photo - these things can get pretty mean. i only took a few shots as not to bother it - they have a short temper. the little white flecks on the insect's body, are from the flowers.

Kehehe Wasps are unpleasant to get stung by, almost got stung in the eye once, but it missed by half a centimeter.

I wouldn't like to get stung by a bee, though I once got bitten by a bumblebee.

when a bee stings you - the stinger gets stuck and gets pulled out, the bee dies. a wasp can sting you multiple times but either way, ya - no thanks!

If human skin were thinner the bee's stinger wouldn't get stuck.
