meet Mr. Bressler...the wasp nest collector
he also collects old tools, which hang on the walls and from the ceiling of his very large workshop
what i learned is how the wasps & hornets make the papery hives - they chew on rotten bark, mixing it with their saliva, then spit it out, & that's what makes the nest material...
so here i've thought some ancient society developed paper-making, and the bees, et al, have been doing it all along!
nature proves it's one step ahead of us yet again
