Common yellowjacket,
Vespula vulgaris
(08/2020 in Oberursel, Germany)

Until around mid-August they mainly feed on protein in form of insects or meat. This is how they supply the larvae. As soon as the adults no longer have to take care of the brood, they need sugar to survive. That's why they get annoying. But that's no reason to kill or torment them. They do valuable services: pollinate plants and keep the environment clean. In contrast to the wasp, humans have a large brain.

I always find it beautiful how the sun sets behind the Taunus mountains. It looks like a huge fire wall... Indeed there is a legend that tells of a high wall of fire - lit by the god father Odin himself.
With some fantasy you can even see him traveling in the clouds. 😉

How would people have thought 1000 years ago when they saw it?

Pareidolia is the tendency for incorrect perception of a stimulus as an object, pattern or meaning known to the observer, such as seeing shapes in clouds, seeing faces in inanimate objects or abstract patterns, or hearing hidden messages in music.

Banana Joe is already more than 20 years old. Since 2001 he lives with me. I chose him for his wild temperament and his nice looking regenerated tail. My first thought was: He looks like a banana! 🍌

It's a while ago that I showed Fusili 🐌💕

The microcodile is the smallest crocodile species. It likes to pretend to be a toy and bites parents in their feet.🐊 The drawing is from 2007.

The howling honey worm is the neotenic larvae of the sugar dragon. It only develops into adulthood in very rare cases. It smells like cinnamon and cucumber. I don't know more yet, but it's howling all the time. Maybe some nice words would make it feel better. The drawing is from 2007.
