Gravity works, just give it time

The giant wasp nest finally fell.

It looked like that October and hung on all winter, progressively raggedier, peeling around the edges, but still attached to the maple.

It was during the wet and windy snowstorm, I think, but I didn’t notice the carcass right away. Now it’s slowly turning into pulp in my front flowerbed.

    Quick! Save it – you can make it into art projects:

    Or, well, you can just let it compost itself. Less labor-intensive. ;P
