I noticed a hive of wasps outside my door yesterday – quite an unusual sight over what has been a disappointing summer so far. With nature so in tune with the weather (and a heatwave forecast by Met Eireann for the coming week), I thought it would be a nice time to put some bug-related style under the microscope.
