A tiny wasp pollinating a small flower (don't ask me what the flower is, all I know is "It's pink")


This particular plant was covered in these tiny wasps "doing their thing". I couldn't get any closer thanks to a barbed wire fence and a ditch, while other plants of the same type I could get closer to didn't have the wasps on them!

This would creep the hell out of me for a few seconds, until I realized what it was. Then I'd be utterly fascinated.

Have to agree.

Dramatic plunge in insect numbers

Insects are an integral part of life on Earth as both pollinators and prey for other wildlife and it was known that some species such as butterflies were declining. But the newly revealed scale of the losses to all insects has prompted warnings that the world is “on course for ecological Armageddon”, with profound impacts on human society.

1 million bees euthanized after California truck crash

The death toll from a truck crash in Northern California on Thursday night was un-bee-lievable.

That’s because the semi-truck that slammed into an embankment along Interstate 80 was carrying about 1 million bees – and they had to be destroyed to prevent them from swarming, Fox 40 reported.

The accident happened in Auburn, north of Sacramento.

The truck’s driver told police he swerved off the freeway to avoid causing a chain reaction crash. He was transported to a local hospital with minor injuries, Fox 40 reported.
