Unfortunately its an unpleasant back story to this photograph. I had gone to move something in my tool shed at night and was surrounded by a loud swam. I ran back inside my house (about 6 meters) and 2 had chased me inside. I was able to then identify them as European Wasps, AKA German Wasps, Yellow Jackets. These things wouldn't let me anywhere near the shed after that and became very defensive and agitated if I got near their nest. I wont kill insects for a photograph, but unfortunately the whole colony had to go, which I took no pleasure in doing. I think they are really amazing looking creatures, its a shame they are so volatile.
