This photo makes me so happy. I thought I captured the moth approaching the milkweed plant as it paused while the wasp finished its business. But I wasn’t sure until I got home and went through the photos, and felt the joy of being in the right place at the right time and knowing how to take this picture on the fly. That’s why I love this photo.
