 A paper wasp nest the size of a basketball was knocked to the ground by the recent rain. The wasps are still going in and out so I don't dare get too close, but I think it's a yellow jacket nest. Soon the nest will be abandoned as the fertilized queens find protected places to overwinter. The nest would gradually disintegrate, but I'll take it to some lucky classroom.
