Very nice close-up. By the way, that is a bee, not a wasp.

No it isn't, it's a wasp. Some kind of yellowjacket. Nevermind that
ts's a hornet's face, no honeybee or bumblebee has antenna that long
and so segmented.

Social wasps' faces are all different, it's an easy way of identifying
which type it is. If you can get to eyeball a wasp that is :-)

There are very many differences in the heads of all wasps and all bees,
it's one of my interests.

I thought that this one with 3 dots on its head was a German Wasp
Vespula germanica but cant see the dots on the thorax
