Tonite while BBQing saw my first Polistes fuscatus (Northern Paper Wasp) on
the side of the house - perhaps looking for future nesting sites . Very
sluggish obviously from the cooling late aft temps but probably active
earlier during the peak heat of the day 

 

Can only hope and see more insect activity as spring gets under way this
weekend 

 

Cheers , DB
