  1. This is an Astata Wasp, carrying a 2nd Instar stinkbug nymph that has been stung enough to paralyze it , making it easy to carry to her nest.
    Once inside her nest, she will deposit the live stinkbug and lay an egg on it. The wasp will collect several stinkbugs per egg and eventually a larval wasp will emerge and devour the stinkbugs, allowing it to develop and spin a cocoon and emerge a year later as an adult Astata wasp.

    We’re sharing our property with these wasps for over a decade and plant the garden with native flowers and shrubs that provide for the wasps and the stinkbugs.

  28. Thought this Stink Bug looked a bit odd. Seems they may have an enemy. Possibly a Tachinid Fly deposited a couple eggs right between the eyes👍
