Sumatran Paper Wasps (Polistes stigma)

These pictures were taken by me about a week ago. At that time I was visiting my friend at Blang Weu Panjoe. In front of his house, there are rice fields surrounded by many bushes. Of course, I didn't miss an opportunity while I was there. I asked my friend to accompany me to take pictures of some insect objects there.

Here is one of the insect objects that I managed to capture. Several Sumatran paper wasps are building their nests. I saw them living in a small group, in stark contrast to the bees that live in colonies in large numbers.

The Sumatran paper wasp is also a species of Polistes stigma. It is a species of paper wasp commonly found in Southeast Asia.
