Default Hive

Wasp hive inside a portable toilet. Someone will be in for a good fright one day.

The 2 wasps seemed pretty docile but I was a bit hesitant about moving in closer.

Man, Bobo, you are a real hero. Super good work! I'd love to shoot wasps, but allergic to the stings. I have to be super careful!

Nice shots. You are one brave man, and to have shot it in port-a-potty must make you superman!

Thanks Mr T, Dirk, Doug, George, caps, Brian.

Would not have been as brave if I had known that it was a live hive with big black wasps attached. Could not see from the bottom.

I was pondering going back for better shots of the intricate pattern on their head but guess I better not.
