Bald-faced Hornet (Dolichovespula maculata)

FWG

(SG) We often see Bald-faced Hornets scraping the roof of our insect hotel or the railings of the bridge for material to make their huge paper nests, but this one was enjoying a drink of nectar from Figwort (Scrophularia lanceolata). Although its blossoms are small, this plant attracts bees all summer and well into the fall.
