I removed a small nest from my door frame a few months ago and one larva fell out. It landed on the hot concrete in the summer sun. I empathized and picked it up. I kept it in a jar with a paper towel under a lamp. I checked on it everyday and I thought that someday I'd set it free in my yard. I even daydreamed that it would immediately sting me when I let it go and that just made me laugh a bit. It eventually died and I put it on my bird feeder. I didn't watch and ai felt sad but it's gone now.

They're cool af. Look at those colours! And the ergonomics.
I leave water bowls for them during summer.
They're not exactly friendly but when you observe them enough you can judge if you're annoying them and should gtfo. Most of the time they just mind their own business.
That's pretty dope.
I just think many humans don't grasp the concept that we can also piss something else off and should gtfo out of their area.
Especially since we make more and more parts of this planet our areas.
