Saw three of these wasps on some native milkweed in the entry plaza of the Nature Gardens at the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County. They would fly away if I got to close when I tried taking their photos. Acting more sensitive to my movement than honey bees.

This small bumblebee is evidently pretty new to Iceland, and 'found mainly in urban areas'... That fits here: a fair sized town with a number of geothermal heated greenhouses. Most of these are used to cultivate flowers. Got no pix; but I'm pretty sure I also saw one at Lake Myvatn-- a place mainly famous for ducks, fish and clouds of tiny dipterans.
