Thought this might be of interest- managed to get a shot of a small wasp not on my car and doing something interesting. Most of the aphids in the shot have already been parasitised with one in the foreground with the neat circular porthole escape route of an adult wasp. Taken 01/Nov/06. Wonder if they over-winter as pupae inside the aphids? Please excuse the oversize image. Brian V.
