Is this ok for the wasps? I know they’re attracted to sugar water but is it safe for them to gorge on it? Some will sit there for long stretches of time with their little heads dunked in there drinking it up. Also curious if this is causing the hummingbirds to avoid it, they don’t come around as much since the wasps have discovered their holy grail of sweetness. I’m happy to feed them if it’s safe but I want my hummingbirds to be able to enjoy it, too. Every internet search I do just comes up with results on how to get rid of them which I don’t necessarily want to do so I’ve come here to consort with my wasp allies.

I’ve been interested in the concept of surrealist automatism (all hand drawn); essentially turning my brain off and letting my hand convey whatever my subconscious brings to the surface, unprocessing the conscious input of life. Curious what y’all think, critiques welcome 🙏
