Personal Sketchbook work: A small paper wasp nest. These are made from wood pulp produced by the wasps, and are typically varying shades of grey with some streaks of tan, depending on the source of the wood. The cells tend toward the hexagonal, but are much less regular in shape and size than are honeycomb cells, especially in a nest this small, which appears to have been overtaken by winter before any larvae were produced. A large nest may be 15 cm across, and have more than one level.
Total time: 2 hours 29 minutes
