Wasp

The other day I came across an inner city vegetable plot. I think this is such a fabulous idea. Last night I went back to visit it and was very happy with the number of bees, flies, wasps, ladybirds and other bugs I found.

Great close-up. There was a show on TV which was a "bee-keeping" contest! Six contestants - all new to beekeeping - in 6 different environments. The city-dwelling couple produced the best honey from their hive on the verandah of their unit! Fascinating to find such interesting stuff in the middle of a city... :)

@robz How amazing that the best honey came from the middle of a city. I was fascinated by how many insects were in the garden plots and was thinking that they didn't have much choice around them so concentrated there.

@dkbarnett Hi Delwyn. In the experiment they ended up concluding that garden plots and parklands were well tended and therefore flowered more reliably. :)
