Not-wasp "wasp"


All my adult life I called these things wasps. In my easy-going old-age and retirement I have found out they are hoverflies, something altogether different. They just mimic some aspects of wasp behaviour. Duh.
I understand this one is the thick-legged hoverfly. Go ahead: say "Pleased to meet you."
