You know nothing. Queens build nests.

WHO HAS EVER SEEN A 'NON-QUEEN' BUILD A NEST ON ITS OWN?

Your title leaves me wondering two things: 1) is this really a queen and; 2) her rain starts by eating? :-) Good insect macro. I like the colors and textures. I'm not so sure I'd get that close to a bee myself though. You're braver than I would be. (no pun intended). Lol.

Excellent sharpness on the wasp. The white is competing for attention in the composition, but is necessary to tell the story. Hope you didn't get stung! :)

Not quite sharp enough. Needs a bit more light on the back of the bee.
