I'm perfectly fine with bees. I was watching a bee the other day. Busy little guy. He was just flying flower to flower minding his own business and hard at work picking through the flower pollinating it. Not harming anyone and didn't mind me being near by working in the yard.
They are quite interesting to watch. Busy little creatures.

I hear ya. I have a problem with these bastards:
A few keep trying to build a nest on the ceiling of my back porch, while another group has one built into the apex of a gable end of the house. I'm going to spray that one this weekend. It's bad enough they get into the attic and build mud nests all over, plus they're mean little shats.

Polistes annularis or the common Red Paper Wasp - along with the hornet by far the most aggressive of all the Polistes. If I had a dollar for every time I was attacked just by bumping a cypress tree while fishing I could put a nice size down payment on a new 4th Gen CTD...
I love bees. I love honey.
I don't like wasps and hornets. But who does. If they aren't right in ny immediate area I'll leave them alone as long as they leave me alone.
I mean they're just trying to make a living man, just like the rest of us.

The blue ones are OK and generally won't sting people. My son used to freak out about wasps and bees until I explained bees to him and my neighbor told him the blue ones won't sting him. He quit acting like a spaz after that.

Wonder if the ones here actually ARE on crack..... as they seem awfully aggressive to me..... Maybe it's just me.

Almost done with season 5 of Breaking Bad, having watched the series again (almost complete anyway), I really really wish Skyler would have been killed at some point.
And I haven't gotten there yet but they should have ended with a proper funeral for Hank and Steve.
