A wasps nest
Hubby had noticed a broken wasp cocoon Wednesday evening but there was still a wasp flying around it. By last night however there was no wasp only the broken cocoon.
Tentatively I took it out from our bag of kindling wood where it had been and found this in what had been the roof of the cocoon. The larvae were still alive and moving around. Couldn’t quite believe how delicate the cocoon was, it’s as fine tissue paper but far more brittle. Needless to say I was in my element with the macro lens, until the light went.
A welcomed change from flowers !
Thanks for stopping
