The Wasp Nest

It's the time of year where we see exposed bird and wasp nests. I notice this large one every as I walk to the river. It's high up in an oak tree in front of a grammar school. It's gray of course but the shade varies depending on the weather. How it changes reminds me of Monet's haystacks and I've fantasized about doing a a series of paintings of the wasp nests.
