No worries about the dark alley. If you meet that *girl* it will likely be in broad daylight. She carries a nasty sting, and unlike a honeybee, can sting repeatedly. The good news is that, like most wasps, she is not particularly aggressive unless she feels threatened. The bad news is that we don't always know what "threatened" means to her. Just don't fondle her butt. This time of year the bees get so drunk on pollen, that yo can safely pet them. I've seen guys doing it, but that is not for me. -- PeterN |

I took her in a studio and made a composite with a graffiti wall. I added the blurs in photoshop. -- PeterN |

PeterN:
This time of year the bees get so drunk on pollen... Bzzzzzt! Wrong answer. There are no intoxicants in pollen or nectar. Besides, it's getting a bit late in the season (in the northern hemisphere) for Apis mellifera to gather pollen. They are starting to eat the honey that they made earlier in the year from nectar that they gathered. -- I agree with almost everything that you have said and almost everything that you will say in your entire life. usenet *at* davidillig dawt cawm |

I have seen wasps (the insect) gorging on grapes that had been left on the ground for a few days... |

"Pollen", I mean that she has not gathered any pollen on her back legs like you see normally. |
