Welcome to the forum

Is it a wasp? I admire you for getting so close to it, I hate the things and usually run a mile from them ;-)

What happened to my post on this last night?? Somehow it didn't stick... Can't remember all my comments on the photo, which isn't showing right now (same thread?). But I do remember it wasn't a yellow jacket:

Yellow jacket - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

What was showing yesterday was a hornet of some type, and I posted a link to one that looked real similar. Don't have time right now to re-Google it, though.
