Color Challenge - Wednesday Yellow - Tansy Wasp
I love the way the Wasp is using its antenna, it has them laid upon the flower, like it is blessing it. Pre-meal prayer by the Wasp maybe?
The Tansy are the longest living of all the flowers on the farm, lasting through the driest parts of the summer, and provide a food source for many insects. It is an astounding sight to see fields of dead grass all around the patches of bright yellow Tansy that are swarmed by insects.

Yes! It does look like the wasp is blessing the flower! What a great photograph! Good morning :)
He's just checking out how much nectar is in the flower and if it worth his while to call his buddies... :)
