The Hooded Crow which I saw at South Gower Rugby Club at Bishopston, Gower, last May was still there today & seems to have paired up with a Carrion Crow, so it will be interesting to see what any hybrid offspring look like: #birds @rspbcymru.bsky.social @gowerbirds.bsky.social @btocymru.bsky.social

Is this a Common Wasp, Vespula vulgaris?
