Wasps are pollinators too 🌼
I absolutely LOVE everything about this photo of the Orange Spider Wasp.
The striking orange against the matte black, but also still has increments of shiny black.
The way it's waking up for the day, yet still looking majestic as it stands there on a dead milkweed, like its the ruler of the wastelands (think Scar from Lion King 🤭)
