I agree bees are far cuter than wasps particularly bumblebees who are dozy. Hoverflies are dozy as well.

You have just reminded me I'm having a bee shortage in the garden this year and the flowers haven't changed. [emoji53]

And some hoverflies, which are harmless and also pollinators, look like them to survive.

Yeh its a dilemma! I often watch a blackbird and think "what a nice little thing" then I see it eating a poor little worm and think "what a bastard!"

I think the solution is for all life to consume politicians. Nobody thinks they are worth anything.

Waspies are lovely little things! I feed them jam.

This scenario would be useless without the wasps, yet it makes me happy to think about it.
