#Wasps at the #darts! Very happy to do a short interview with @talksport.com yesterday about the 'Ally Pally wasp'. However, much like the poor wasps I was a bit dopey yesterday and mistakenly said that virgin queens overwinter... queens actually mate before the end of the season! bit.ly/4pR1vQS
...and the reason for that dopeyness, a really fun (but exhausting!) week spent in #Edinburgh for the @britishecologicalsociety.org #AnnualMeeting25. A great time spent with friends new and old!
Abstract submissions and registration are now open for the @royentsoc.bsky.social #StudentForum2026! We'll be at @newcastleuni.bsky.social from 30-31 March - all undergrads and postgrads studying insects should consider attending!

My first wasp publication is out! @waspwoman.bsky.social and I have written a piece highlighting why wasps are so cool in Frontiers for Young Minds... perfect for children but equally as fascinating for all ages!
When you hear the word โwaspโ, you probably imagine a stripey yellow-and-black insect that you see flying about at your summer picnic. You would be right! But there is much more to wasps than you thin...
