Let It Bee

Actually, it should be Let It Wasp....

I took this photo with my iPhone yesterday. I focused on the shadow...

Just buzzing in to tell you that to me, it looks like that be(e) a hornet, actually...
But it is a nice, clear picture for something taken with an iPhone rather than a real camera.

Yes, I suppose I could agree with you ... but then we'd both be wrong, wouldn't we?

You forced me to do some research today.

Google told me that "Hornets are wasps, but not every wasp is a hornet". The creature on the right below is a "Paper Wasp," which is not a hornet and it looks a lot like the insect in my photo.

Why is an iPhone not a real camera? Mine produces sharper pictures under any condition than the good old Kodak Instamatic which I have heard called many things, but never not a real camera. But I am fascinated that there is a different between hornet and wasp. But I am too lazy to look it up, similar to the difference between vulture and buzzard.

All buzzards are hawks. No buzzard is a vulture. No vulture is a buzzard. No matter how long the residents of Hinckley, Ohio persist in their delusion.

And a hornet is of the genus vespa or wasp as are (wait for it wait for it) wasps.

For Christianity, by identifying truth with faith, must teach-and, properly understood, does teach-that any interference with the truth is immoral. A Christian with faith has nothing to fear from the facts

I do know the difference between a Hawk and a Falcon. It is Raymond Loewy and Lee Iacocca
