A Swallow Tail Butterfly Story

One summer afternoon, me and my father saw a swallow tail butterfly in our deck. It is a great mover and we took pictures of it. My mom was afraid of it. She doesn't like bugs and pets. That is all. It flew away.

Paper Wasp


The paper wasp is one of nature's finest architects. worker wasps scrape wood fibers from dead branches, which they mix with saliva or water to form a wet paper pulp for building their nests with. Unfortunately, their painful stings make paper wasps unwelcome neighbors. Getting rid of a colony that has moved in next to your home is no easy matter. Any threat to the nest triggers an attack by thousands of irate defenders.
