Discovered the biggest wasp nest I have ever seen! I'm happy there was no one home......hahaha buzzzzzzz

its a pity that nobody's home! they are so cute!:) onlyricky · 2010-09-10: 15:41

So bizarre and fascinating - I've never seen this kind of wasp nest in my life...I know they make a substance that changes into a "paper" like material (by mixing saliva with weathered wood fibers ) - how amazing. Sometimes the substance is different and changes into something like cement (by mixing saliva with mud), it depends of the kind of wasps. Thanks for showing it, what a great find...and lucky for you it was deserted. ...Are you sure is not a mummy's head though ;) ? redro · 2010-09-10: 15:55
