Achoo! Why Pollen Counts

Drunk German Wasps

8/26/2015

Ryan Bersani and Paula Miller just returned from a trip to Europe on Monday and Ryan sent me this photo of a wasp he took last week for the http://www.achoowhypollencounts.com/photos-of-pollen-from-near-and-far.html page. The little pollinator was attracted to his beer mug in Wiesbaden, Germany. Apparently drunk and aggressive German wasps are getting around this summer - the Independent posted an article about them yesterday. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/angry-drunk-and-unemployed-german-wasps-are-invading-essex-10471608.html
