What do you call a wasp?

A wanna-bee!

Interesting Fact: Bumblebees use sense of smell to detect flowers rich in nectar. Sense of smell is located on the antennas on the head. ( http://www.softschools.com/facts/animals/bumblebee_facts/582/ )

  2. Satan. You call a wasp Satan. My husband is a bee-whisperer. He pets them like furry puppies and never gets stung. Cool photo.

  3. I think they also like the purple echinacea. I grow them for the monarch butterflies enjoying them now as they head South.

  4. I once, as a very small boy playing hide and seek, blundered into a bumblebee nest and got stung all over. I have forgiven the bees for that.
