!! WASPS CO-OPERATIVE HOUSING SOCIETY LTD !! Social Wasps: Neither a bee nor an ant Tungareshwar WLS (MS), India: Nov-2014 Better view: https://500px/photo/91404583 All species of social wasps construct their nests using some form of plant fiber (mostly wood pulp) as the primary material, though this can be supplemented with mud, plant secretions (e.g., resin), and secretions from the wasps themselves; multiple fibrous brood cells are constructed, arranged in a honeycombed pattern, and often surrounded by a larger protective envelope. Wood fibers are gathered locally from weathered wood, softened by chewing and mixing with saliva. The kind of timber used varies from one species to another, or one locality to another, and this can give many species a nest of distinctive color. The placement of nests can also vary from group to group Sony SLT A57, Tamron 90mm f2.8 1/160s...f20...ISO 100 Spot Metering, A-mode, WB Daylight Sony HVL F43M external flash Handheld, Basic Image PP: Adobe CS6
