Making my way through the ups and downs of life, holding fast to my favorite Bible verse: "For we walk by faith, not by sight." ~2 Corinthians 5:7.
I began blogging in earnest at Yahoo360 on October 24, 2005. (briefly using LiveJournal and blog-city prior to that) In June 2008 I moved to Blogger. I'm now at WordPress where I hope to remain.
What do you do with the wasps once you've caught them? Dare I ask?
EVEN IN SHADOW
Even in shadow, where there is no light, One may take comfort and one may delight That darkness has lost its power to thrall Those who are living on this earthly ball.
I am familiar with the yellow plastic wasp catchers, but haven't seen this style before. It looks something like a street lamp, especially in the shadow!
That is such a good shot, Kelly. do you have to put jam and water in the bottle to catch them. We suspend jam jars from the fruit trees when the wasps are about!
Thanks for all the comments. Sounds like many of you have had some experience with wasp catchers.
For this one, you're supposed to put a little apple juice in it. When the wasp (attracted to the sweetness) finds its way in, it gets trapped and dies. To be honest, though, I've rarely used it for its intended purpose, so it's more for decoration. My dogs are bad about knocking it over (the little glass wasp on the lid is broken).
Cool photo. I was stung 3 times when I inadvertently disturbed a small nest of wasps last week. We often get nests in our garden. By the way, their bravery cost them their lives….

My favourite yet, partly because of the subject matter, I love that green glass, and partly because of the shadow cast.
I'm not sure I've ever seen a wasp catcher before, or didn't recognize it if I did... nice shadow shot :)
This is what we need!
Never heard of a wasp catcher. I do love the photo!

Great shadow shot. I have a big tabletop fly/wasp catcher,though I don't think I have ever caught anything in it!
Beautiful shadow!

Glad you like it, John!
Boonie - I know they really had to bug you for you to take their lives!
