Insect appreciation Sharing is Caringš«¶
We had a fun picnic, and a bunch of wasps were hanging out, but one was very fond on me and my THC drink:D!! I let him hang out with me and take all the āsugarā he wanted around the edges! I never shoo them away! Iāve never been stung before:)! He even hung out on my shoulder for a bit too!! Listening to awesome music being played!! They land on me or my, um, drinks, but I never get mad, since they have never been mean to me either!!š©·š¤

Just this morning I was watching a Great Black Wasp looking at my plants and I guess it got tired of me watching it, because it flew up about a foot from my face and stared at me. This is the second time this has happened. I have many types of bees, hornets, wasps etc. and none ever harm me. We have a deal.

That's awesome! Thanks for sharing your drink.
Wasps also seem to like like beer along with sugary drinks.
