When I was last up at 'Spooks' place in the Kaimai's I photographed (rather poorly) this wasp attacking a dragon fly, killing it and on its way...
By the time I saw the attack the Dragon fly was not looking to happy, but they were both in flight, little bastards!.

Wasps, fecken wasps again.
Was up the paddock hand slashing a small amount of gorse again and boom, boom i start getting nailed again by the little bastards. So make a run for it to get away and they chased me about 30m before stopping. Waited for dark and have just got back from locating the nest. IME they attack when you get within a metre or so, so i went up with my possuming spot light and a LED headlamp. I have found these asian wasps become active with the yellow light of the spot light but stay inactive with the white light of the LED. I found their nest as they started to fire up with the spot light on their opening area, the sound showed me they were over the bank on the fence line. The nest was massive, i could fit my hand into the opening so they are now enjoying about three litres of 2 stroke fuel after i painted the entrance white with fly spray. I ran out of spray and gas so I'll refuel tomorrow when i go into town and make sure they're all ruined tomorrow night.
damn my leg is aching, three stings around the knee plus another three in the back and one on my wrist. I give them credit, they put up a good attack but i will fuck them in the end.

The ingredients used for the wasp trap was a tablespoonful of honey and mixed with warm water too disolve. Then added a squirt of vanila essence which ferments in the sun.There has been no sun since it was set The wasps sink to the bottom.

12 wallabies and a possum tonight.. nor-west turned nasty just when I was settling in for last light after picking off the first couple.. ruined my fun a bit as I wasn't in the mood for unpleasant weather, so headed homewards again, picking a few more off as I went. Still.. better than a night on the sofa! :thumbsup:
