#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

A real honour and a pleasure to be invited to speak to the public at @uclgrantmuseum.bsky.social twice this month in collaboration with the #WorldOfWasps exhibition. Still on until the end of January, make sure to visit!

@idrisadams.bsky.social's 1st wasp paper! Although written for & reviewed by kids, it's good for wasp-wary adults too! And a perfect companion for a visit to the @uclgrantmuseum.bsky.social #WorldOfWasps free exhibition www.ucl.ac.uk/museums-coll... @uclcber.bsky.social @uclnews.bsky.social

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!

Submit your research or join to make the most of the networking opportunities at this great @royentsoc.bsky.social event!

When a world-class zoology museum says: "We'd like to make an exhibition all about wasps; will you help us?" you have to pinch yourself to know it's real! #WorldOfWasps @uclgrantmuseum.bsky.social www.ucl.ac.uk/museums-coll... @uclcber.bsky.social @cintiaoi.bsky.social @idrisadams.bsky.social
