Dinapsis bicolor, the second last wasp for my project! I have one more to draw, and that is Monomachus! I can't wait to be finished to see the end result. It will be interesting.

Found a wasp in the bathroom today and caught it in an empty fast food drink cup I had left from lunch

I watched it drink from some of the leftover soda droplets and clean itself for a minute or two, then I opened the cup outside a window to release it

It took one final sip of the cola remnants (guess it wanted one for the road), turned its head toward me briefly, then flew off. I don't like anthropomorphizing animal behavior, but the quick glance almost felt like a "Hey, thanks for the drink. And for not squishing me. Peace"

Of course I was somewhat nervous trying to catch it, no one wants to be stung afteralll, but it was surprisingly chill even after I accidentally poked it with the straw. Surprisingly cute, too. The way its mouth-parts moved while drinking reminded me of a dog or cat lapping up water

I didnt take any pics or record a video, but I still wanted to share this small experience with all of you

Wasps are horribly misunderstood creatures

I was only able to get the one photo before it flew off. I love paper wasps, they’re so pretty :3

glimpse into my beautiful imaginary world where arthropods are really big and we domesticated them

edit: people are starting to say some "my worst nightmare" or "eeeww no that one is yucky and scary" comments on this like they do on any bug post and id like to say. it's fine if you don't like bugs it's fine if you're scared of bugs but don't put that on MY post clearly talking about how much i like them and how cute i think they are. you can make your own damn post about how much you hate wasps or spiders or whatever. i'm blocking people who make these kinds of comments.

This is what bug haters look like
