It's quite amazing to see one of the wasps carrying it's bounty of a cicada. They wrap their legs around it and fly directly into their nest with it. If they miss the entrance to the nest, they either have to let the cicada go or risk their own legs - they can't land and still hold onto it. If they make the nest, I assume they just drop it and then put out their landing gear. Fascinating, in any case.Suldoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07778845367184916684noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23674601.post-34936672428444647492011-08-04T12:41:42.482-05:002011-08-04T12:41:42.482-05:00Your little camera did a fantastic job!Your little camera did a fantastic job!EG CameraGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12803759124643467711noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23674601.post-5024653018404592012011-08-03T11:27:36.655-05:002011-08-03T11:27:36.655-05:00In other words Imac...
