So i finally decided to make a log :p

Today i found an ootheca while helping my neighbor with gardening! She didn't want it (she doesn't like bugs even if they eat other bugs!) so i took it and placed it on my deck where i can see it through the window. Its about the size of a nickel (are they usually this small?) and I plan to look for more later today :)

 
I would place it somewhere more "concealed/sheltered". There are many animals (such as birds and squirrels) that would eat oothecae as a nice source of protein.

Ok i will see if i can find it a more sheltered place (I doubt birds would get to it because it's not where they could see it but i will still move it)
