Yellow Jacket Lunching on Apples Again.


Out picking up apples with the yellow jackets, i moved this apple a foot over to the right so it would be in better light. The yellow jacket came back and flew to the spot where the apple had previously been. In fact he came back to that spot several times, while the bright red apple was just sitting a foot away in full view. Eventually i moved the apple back where it had been and the yellow jacket instantly landed on it and continued to eat.

I don't know what that was. He had to be able to see it a foot away, so maybe he just didn't want his dinner moved?
