Featured in the photo is the first yellow jacket nest of the season, found on June 16, 2022 in Scioto County, Ohio. This Tennis-ball size nest has the new queen which was hatched late last summer and survived the winter. There are about 20 newly hatched workers, all female, who will take up the tasks of building the nest larger and bringing in food and water while the queen stays in the nest and continues to lay eggs. The nest will rapidly grow larger and in the coming months produce hundreds of workers.
