In my imagination the pain must be unbearable. As a child, my sister was stung five times and her wailing could be heard throughout the neighbourhood.<br />O.k., she was a kid. And she was stung FIVE TIMES.<br />But still... Wasps are horrible. And dangerous. The pain might kill me... :p<br /><br />So under normal circumstances I could never have got near enough to one of those creatures from hell to shoot the pic above.<br />BUT:<br />One sunny day last summer my hubby and me were at MacDonald's. We were sitting outside, enjoying sticky milk shakes, when the wasps found us.<br />One of them fell into my shake, the others buzzed off to annoy other customers.<br />I watched the wasp struggling to stay on the surface of my drink. I couldn't let it drown.<br />I'm scared of them, but I'm no cold-blooded murderer, so I fished it out with my spoon and deposited it on my tray.<br /><br />It sat there (quite relieved, I presume) and began to clean itself.<br />You see, it was covered in sticky milk shake, so it was stuck (haha) on my tray for quite a while.<br />Ruthlessly, I decided to take advantage of its situation and shoved my camera in its face.</div><div align="center"></div><div align="left">There.
