Southside Tena Weibe captured this photo of a very unusual hornet鈥檚 hive on her house.
Hornet nests are made of a paper substance derived from saliva and wood pulp. The size of a hornet nest grows in proportion to the size of the colony. Nests may grow to be as large as basketballs.
Nests are only used once; worker populations perish in winter, leaving only the fertilized females to begin new colonies in the coming warm seasons.
