Ichneumon Wasp
Ichneumon ambulatorius
I couldn't believe my eyes
when I spied this beautiful wasp in Red Butte Gardens. These
yellows
flowers (and I
don't know their name) were covered in bees and wasps. ©

I could have gotten a lot
more photos if my camera hadn't taken so long to process
because the wasp
walked around on these flowers forever. Maybe that's how it
earned its name of "ambulatorius"
(ambulatory - referring to walking). © Carol Davis, 9-19-2011
