Star of Bethlehem


This wasp sat on the deck railing begging to have its photo taken, so I did, with my Canon S3 IS I didn't get the super macro setting on before it flew away, though.

This little Star of Bethlehem (ornithogalum umbellatum) is a very well behaved bulb in my garden. It lights up dark corners in my woodland. I must get more of them. The leaf to the left belongs to a delphinium. The Star has strap-like leaves.
