gergAn Australian cuckoo wasp, Primeuchroeus sp. Like it's avian namesake, cuckoo wasps lay their eggs in the nests of unrelated host species.<br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/macro?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#macro</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/nature?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#nature</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/insect?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#insect</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/wasp?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#wasp</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/cuckoowasp?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#cuckoowasp</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/auswildlife?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#auswildlife</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/insectsofaustralia?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#insectsofaustralia</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/insectsofthefediverse?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#insectsofthefediverse</a>
Colin Purrington<p>Five second video of a parasitic cuckoo wasp at one of my insect hotels. I love how their antennae are always in motion. And their huge eyes. And their metallic color.

The Gardener<p>Fished this beautiful cuckoo wasp out of the dog's water dish. After drying off and meticulously cleaning itself, it flew away. <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/WaspWednesday" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WaspWednesday</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Hymenoptera" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hymenoptera</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Chrysididae" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Chrysididae</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/wasp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wasp</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/CuckooWasp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CuckooWasp</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/insect" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>insect</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/iridescence" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>iridescence</span></a></p>
