My Bff’s 11 year old granddaughter raised chickens
for a 4H project. She did a wonderful job.
6 of the pullets won a Blue Ribbon and sold for close to $100.00.
I’m so proud of her and am very happy for her.
Wishing you all pleasant Wednesday.

Male Cow-Killer Ant
Male Red Velvet Ant
My photo for the ‘2015 WP Weekly Photo Challenge – Vivid’ is a female cow-killer or red velvet ant. In the post I mentioned that they’re actually wasps. The female is a wingless wasp and has a painful sting.
The male looks similar to the female only with black wings and the males doesn’t sting.
The male in the photo is the first one that I’ve had the opportunity to photograph. He’s a smidge smaller than the female and quite fast with his wings.
