Yep, that's what Europeans (wenn, at least Germans) think of if they
hear the word "wasp". And
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_honey_bee is what they think of
if they hear the word "bee".
They're very easy to distinguish:
* Wasps have no hairy body.
* Wasps also care about meat.
* Wasps don't sit on flowers.
* Wasps have a very tight and clearly visible taille.
* Wasps have clearly visible mandibles.
(And it's well known locally that there is a wasp plague in at least
Baden-Württemberg this summer.)
Maybe north american bees look more like (our) wasps. No idea why else
Steve thought that those are bees.
Kind regards, Axel
