Can a wasp wear jewels?

Steve Fanouillet proves it’s possible. This macro captures a cuckoo wasp in all its iridescent brilliance—nature’s tiniest armour, painted in metallic fire. Awesome shot! 👏❤️

An Australian cuckoo wasp, Primeuchroeus sp. Like it's avian namesake, cuckoo wasps lay their eggs in the nests of unrelated host species.

Almost ignored this cuckoo was because I thought it was an ant.

Cuckoo wasp, Chrysididae. I can still remember the first time I saw a cuckoo wasp. At that time I had nothing to do with insects and was completely clueless. “Wow, two-colored flies,” I said.

A cuckoo wasp based on one I photographed a few years ago. On this tiny sketchbook page, I couldn’t quite capture the emerald iridescence.

Quite often, when I encounter exciting things like this Ruby-tailed Wasp, I forget how to work my camera in a panic. Fortunately, this one stuck around long enough to regain my composure!

What a beautiful thing it is 🐝 ❤️

This beautiful being is a chrysis a very large genus of cuckoo wasps. I appreciate the metallic colouring though. I think is is wonderful that such colours occur naturally.

Today I was cleaning my hummingbird feeder, and look who I found inside: this gorgeous cuckoo wasp! It accidentally got rinsed into the sink, but was rescued and relocated outside.

Here's a Ruby-tailed Wasp that was hanging around the solitary bee nesting facility. I guess it's probably Chrysis ignita, but no doubt someone will correct me if not.

My first photo of this species..

Metallic turquoise, blue and magenta - could any other insect rival this little beauty?
