A few days ago, I did a post about a wasp: “A Wasp“. In it I noted that the wasp in question didn’t seem to be moving at its normal speed, thus allowing me to get a close-up picture rather easily.

Well, the other day I came out through my front door and there, on the floor before me, were about 100 wasps (I counted them). At first, I thought they were dead but when I poked one of them with a stick if moved, albeit very sluggishly. Since I don’t like to deliberately kill anything I made my way carefully around them and went on my way.

Later when I went to take a look at them, they were no longer there. Either they had recovered enough from what ailed them to fly away, or probably more likely the strong winds we were experiencing at that time had blown them off my porch.
