Hornet Nest


As I was walking along the beautiful beach of Pasir Bogak in Pangkor, I saw this big hornet's nest. It was a scary sight, not that it was ugly looking but the occupants of this nest were indeed very deadly creatures. Their stings can make us very sick and even deadly if we are to be attacked by a swarm of them.

After observing for a while, I found it to be very safe and peaceful. They were busy attending to their chores in the nest. The hornets need a lot of flowering plants/trees around them so that they can have easy food available. They feed on the nectar from the flowers.
