Arctic wasps?
One a south-facing fence panel today, a wasp was scraping wood. The
shade temperature was around 3 or 4 deg C, although it must have been a
good bit higher in the sun.
Wasps have been a damn nuisance this year, as we have a nest under
paving stones on a raised patio about 50 cm high, and only a couple of
meters from the house. Entrance was via a rockery at the front of the
patio. I keep expecting the cold weather (-5 here last night) to kill
them off, but they seem very resilient.
