This wasp caught my eye because of its bright green eyes. I was able to capture quite a few frames as it nectared on the mountain mint. Here’s the wikipedia page about the genus Tachytes.
If you’re interested in seeing other organisms I’ve photographed on my mountain mint plant check out the full project (in progress) which can be seen by clicking the link in the menu under “In the Garden” or Under “Photography – Projects.” Or you can CLICK HERE.
