Rolfe 2 Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 Took this wasp nest from a fence yesterday.......they had built it in the clematis. Just have to admire the work the little buggers put into the constructon. The grubs can be clearly seen.......these are much sort after by the chub fishermen as a favourite bait.
