While walking this morning, I saw a hummingbird drinking from a Red Hesperaloe, before I could snap a shot, it flew away. Just below where I saw the hummingbird was this Yellow Jacket and I decided it was going to be my picture for 07/25. Because of poor lighting conditions in these photos, making this picture was a challenge.
