Love/Hate

This week in SSC:

"Take, in the same photo, the worst thing that you hate, and the thing, on the contrary, that you love passionately. You should not say in the comment or in the photo the thing you hate and the thing you like; It will be up to the group to guess the answer."

I couldn't get these two together in the same photo so I used a little editing. I try to appreciate all of nature but I do like some things more than others. Can you guess how I feel about these two? ;-)

..and for Sight and Sound:

Ich habe eben noch darüber nachgedacht, dass ich Bienen und Hummeln gut leiden kann, aber Hornissen und Wespen lieber aus dem Weg gehe. Das Kaninchen ist entzückend!

I love the bees too but I wouldn't miss the wasps if they decided to stay away. :))

Yes! Sure, why not throw a few "killer" wasps into what's going on now? It's almost laughable. ;-)

I'm with you in this:-) A cute little rabbit but I abhor wasps!

Karen's Place ^club has replied to Gudrun ^club

I really do wonder what it must be like to be a wasp? They must be very grumpy beings. :))

Well - I guess that you prefer the rabbit, but wasps can be helpful in eating crop-destroying bugs such as grubs, caterpillars and weevils, and rabbits can devastate a vegetable garden. ;-)

Karen's Place ^club has replied to Amelia ^club

Such good points, Amelia. The bunnies can be very destructive to a garden. Luckily for them, I have no garden this year so he can have anything he wants. :)

difficult to say, wasps are only nice far in the forest and the rabbits eat all our flowers, but are very cute looking, so I suppose you like rabbits

Yeah, I adore the little bunnies. :)

You like bees / wasps because they do so much for the environment.
But maybe you also like rabbits because they taste so delicious?!

No, seriously... Rabbits don't sting you and are more likely to run away,
unlike wasps, which behave in exactly the opposite way. :)

Karen's Place ^club has replied to Taormina

Lol, I wish the bunny would stay and the wasps would be terrified of me. :))

Ruebenkraut ^club

maybe you like the little stingy insects more than the rabbits?

Haha, I don't think so. :))

We have a love/hate with our wild hares. We like them when they visit our yard but hate them when they eat the bark off our trees and bushes.

Karen's Place ^club has replied to Bruce Dean (Puchinpa… ^club

I know what you mean, Pappy.

I try to always remind myself that Nature knows what she's doing.

Definitely prefer the bunny. However, pollinators are better than potential pests.

raingirl ^club

I even hate to look at pictures of that type of bee! But the bunny - I just saw one of these on my back deck today!!!! I know they live across the street in my neighbors heavy low bush, but I've never seen them in 20 years - and never in our yard, let alone on our deck. I couldn't get to a camera before it hopped away, so I'm thrilled to see your photo here. It was the exact same kind!!!!

Lovely photos both and combined just right for the challenge.
(Always wondered how much pollinating wasps do...)

Yeah, it was a little uncomfortable doing the editing. :)

Thanks, Laura!

Both beautiful images Karen but I am with you - I love the bunny but dislike wasps. I can remember as a child my granny used to put a 'blue bag' on our wasp stings, but I have stayed nervous around wasps ever since!

Your bunny is adorable. The wild rabbits at the local cemetery eat all the flowers except roses!

Karen's Place ^club has replied to Ecobird ^club

Thanks, Carol. I stepped in a wasp nest as a kid and they still make me nervous too. I can't imagine them ever being cuddly like a bunny. :)

Karen, what do you think would happen if all kinds of wasps with their specific characteristics actually decided to stay away...? ;) Apart from that these are two very nice animal portraits!
