    Thanks Sheal, nor in my Kitchen for a while today!! I hardly saw any last year but I've obviously got a nest somewhere in the garden. I'll leave them alone as they aren't a menace if left alone and, as I said, they do help in pollination.:snork:

      I sent mine up on a bus to your garden Armandii.
      I'm glad to see they have all arrived safely,

        Thank you, Jenny. they did arrive safely:hate-shocked::heehee: But they said they've moved out due to hearing that South American Killer Bees were moving into your garden.:runforhills::sofa:

              I watched a Wasp eat a Hoverfly bum first yesterday. Bit hard to watch when it started devouring the head. Couldn't get any pictures :mad:

              The buddleia is still the main attraction and its like Picadilly Circus sometimes,
              Lots of Tortoiseshells today- love the pretty blue necklace around the wing edges

              and there are always Peacocks

                I saw a wasp eating/stinging a large cream/black moth - still alive - moth was on its back - twirling round and round with the wasp on top - couldnt stand to see it suffering so I trod on both - done :dbgrtmb:
