Thank you Carol. This was a pretty big spider for the wasp to be packing around.

Hi, John. Lovely shot of a thread-waist wasp! I'm not familiar with this one - yellow coloration. Thank you for joining my new group "Wasps and Hornets"; we're small right now but I believe the group will grow. There are a lot of wonderful images out there. This picture is being featured on the home page for all to enjoy - thanks for sharing:>)

Thank you very much, Carol. And thanks for starting a wasp group. Bugs rule.
