European Paper Wasp (Polistes dominulus) seen residing on a Sea Squill or White Squill (Urginea Maritima).

Wasps of the cosmopolitan genus Polistes are the most familiar of the polistine wasps, and are the most common type of paper wasp. It is also the single largest genus within the family Vespidae, with over 300 recognized species and subspecies. Their innate preferences for nest-building sites leads them to commonly build nests on human habitation, where they can be very unwelcome; although generally non-aggressive, they can be provoked into defending their nests. They are all-predatory, and they consume large numbers of caterpillars, in which respect they are generally considered quite beneficial.

Hello David,
a fascinating clear and sharp picture. Light on the blossom and on the wasp is beautiful. Details and colours are excellent. The background is appropriate and non-disturbing allowing to concentrate really on the insect/flower interaction.
Best wishes, Peter

Great composition and colors. Paradise on photo.
Thanks
Krzysztof
