cabbage worms worst enemy

I discovered cabbage worms in our kale yesterday and picked all that I could find. This morning I found a few more but was surprised when a wasp flew into a kale plant and came out with a worm.

I managed to get a photo of the wasp on the ground with the cabbage worm but can't seem to copy it into this post.

It is really cool and proof that there are good guys out in the garden doing their job.

OK, here is the photo.

Double click to open full size. Notice how the wasp is holding the cabbage worm in a "Tango" fashion.
