The common wasp - Vespula vulgaris

Went in the garden hunting for bugs today but didn't need to go far to find these horrors! Each year they chomp their way through all the wind fall apples. I kid myself thinking I am leaving them for the birds to eat but in reality the wasps eat the most!










How many wasps can fit into an apple?






No wasps were harmed in the taking of these photos but more importantly no humans were stung!
