It's a little blurry, but it's a black wasp that's slowly dragging the carcass of a dead (or possibly paralyzed) grasshopper maybe 3x its size along the trail back to its lair or something. As I was watching the wasp do its thing, a lizard suddenly appears out of nowhere and straight up JUMPS her! Snatches the grasshopper right out from under the wasp's nose and starts hightailing it back to whatever hole he crawled out of.
Needless to say, the wasp was PISSED! It starts stinging the shit out of the lizard until finally the lizard lets go of the grasshopper and runs to hide under a rock.
The wasp then takes about 10 seconds to figure out where exactly the lizard dropped the prize before resuming her grasshopper dragging. Not 10 seconds after THAT, the lizard reappears like a fricken BOLT OF LIGHTNING, snatches the grasshopper away and this time with a proper getaway strategy figured out zooms right back under the rock before the wasp knew what hit her.
The confused wasp flew little circles, trying to figure out how the hell she got mugged twice in the span of a few seconds, all the while looking for the perp. Since the lizard was now safely under the rock probably already chowing down on delicious grasshopper, all the wasp sees is ME, and starts bee-lining... err... wasp-lining it right towards ME!
Since I didn't know how to say YOU GOT THE WRONG GUY in wasp, I got the hell out of dodge... which wasn't very easy to do when you have 30 pounds on your back!
