Dolichovespula maculata? - Dolichovespula maculata
Chimney Tops Trail, Sevier County, Tennessee, USA
August 24, 2016
sorry for the bad image quality :/
I was shot this picture with my canon T6 with the kit lens. (at the time, I hadn't purchased my EF-S 55-250 mm f/4-5.6 IS STM)
If this is Dolichovespula maculata, this will be the first record on BG for Sevier County.
