My Wasps

This is what I see when I look out my front door, but I have to look up. They are UP there.

This is what my guests see when they come in the front gate, but they have to look up. They are UP there.

These are my wasps. Aren't they divine? I have been watching them build their beautiful nest for ages now. The nest has stayed symmetrical the whole entire time. I love it because I am a symmetrical girl. It gets me in trouble sometimes, not being able to be asymmetrical, but on the whole, it's OK.

I wonder if other wasps do this in other places... build in formation I mean. It is so beautiful, but it does make me have dreams of curious, very very large, humming nests that completely take over my house, all because I am so dreamy and want to watch their latest design taking place.

Weirdo? Or Surveyor of Simplistic Beauty?
