Open-air Colony Formingfeatured

A somewhat rare occurrence about 12 miles north of me. Probably a swarm which landed on this branch and couldn’t reach a consensus as to picking a new sheltered home, so they started constructing comb. Not a good prospect for long term survival, as they are exposed to the elements and predators.
