Potter wasp on leaf (Eumenes coarctatus)

Potter Wasps are so called as they make a little pot from mud on the underside of leaves where it leave its larvae next to some paralyzed insect that it feeds on. Did you ever see the film Alien? Well its similar to that but on a smaller scale I guess.

Taken with Canon 1000D and Canon 100mm f2.8 macro lens
