Antlers - _TNY_9763 - a photo on Flickriver

            A male of some sort of Dolichovespula wasp on a great masterwort (Astrantia major).

Its antennae really look like horns or antler which is the reason wasp is called "geting" in Swedish as "get" is what we call a goat. "Little goat" so to speak. Compare it to the English "hornet" which also stems from it looking like its horned.
