Polistes carolina (PAPER WASP)

Paper wasps (vespid subfamily Polistinae) frequently nest on or in window sills or under roof overhangs.
This particular paper wasp took up residence inside of a cable box. 

I removed the cover of the box after seeing the wasp climb inside so I could get these pictures. 

I even managed to get a couple of fairly decent shots of it in flight.
