Heres Laburnaum tree with a sting in it, well quite a few stings actually, its a wasp nest.

I took this shot at the weekend in Seaford, Sussex.

Thats a great b shot of a very cool nest! WOW!!!

Was it actually green?  All the wasps nests I've seen have been light brown, reflecting the pulped wood that they're made from.  If this nest is actually green, as it appears to be on my system, then I wonder what they made it out of?

They are eco-friendly wasps !

The green appearance is mostly due to the leaves of the tree. However, your comment prompted me to take a closer look at the NEF file.

I'm afraid I can't show you this file here (its 12.3mb), but I have taken a portion to see if it will give a better result here. There are actually a great many colours in this structure, blues, greens, yellows, pinks. Its an amazingly beautiful piece of nature when viewed close up.

I think you should set fire to it and see what colour the smoke is...
