ELEMENT OF MIND IN WASP'S ACTION

one rough day in early autumn
paused in my walk in a Surrey orchard
to watch a curious scene in insect life

have called # had it not brought back

mind was ciouded with doubts and the
ways of certain insects. especially Of
wasps. were much in my thoughts.

Pear Their Prey.
In the orchard there was an old pear
tree which produced very large late
pears, and among the fruit the Septem-
Der wind had shaken down that morn
ing there was one overripe in which
the wasps had eaten a deep cup-shaped
cavity, Inside the cavity six or seven
wasps were reveling in the sweet juice,
lying fat and motionless, crowded to
gether
Outside the cavity on the pear. thirty
or forty blue-bottIe flies had congre~

From time to time one Of a more
venturesome spirit would put out his
proboscis and begin sucking at the
edge; the slight tentative movement
would instantly be detected by a wasp,
and he would turn quickly round to
face the presumptuous fly, lifting his
wings in a threatening manner, and the
fly would take his proboscis off the
rim of the cup.
Occasionally hunger would overcome
their fear: a general movement of the
flies would take place, and seVerai
