European paper wasp nest (Polistes dominula)

Fletcher Wildlife Garden

Typical paper wasp nest, usually affixed somewhere such as under an eaves, the roof of a shed, under a bridge, even inside birdhouses. About a decade ago, I found this species using the holes in a metal post and building their nests inside the hollow post.
