Today's activity in the small forest, part 1

^{Today's gust of wind, erratic, its direction rotates from one side to the other, this can be seen in the view of a leaf flying in an erratic direction, not a few leaves fall around every empty area, the air at that time was not healthy because of a lot of dust and other trash dancing along in a wind ride.}

However, the journey continues with a goal of being in a small forest about 5 kilometers from the city. This location is also still under the jurisdiction of the City of Lhokseumawe, but precisely on the border of the area between the Regency/City.

From the departure point it doesn't take a long time, because walking by a private means of transportation, it doesn't take one hour to be and arrive at the destination, which is a small forest that is still beautiful and natural.

This small forest in Aceh, has the potential for natural habitats that are still natural, nothing disturbs them, both local residents and residents outside the area who live outside the location. This is due to the influence of the location which has a complicated terrain to reach it, it is located on a high hill. The assumption is that it belongs to local residents who have not been cared for for a long time, causing the growth of trees and wild plants, even ornamental plants that grow on their own. The wild plants and trees grow on their own, as a result of the impact of the activities of birds making nests among the trees. Whereas every bird always brings and returns seeds when they eat in certain seasons, when they pass the location, intentionally or unintentionally the seeds fall from their beaks. So that every ornamental plant or wild plant grows together in the area itself.

^{(¬Scoliid Wasps ®2021¬)}

I myself am standing here alone, gazing at the green plants that grow randomly in a beautiful location like a garden that has the potential for flower plants.

In this beautiful small forest, it turns out that there are several small habitats that dominate many of these areas as their main nests, once an insect species or other, dominates every point of the location, as if they have allotted their respective territories.

Among the many visible points, my gaze fell on one, an ornamental plant growing wild on the other side of the dense grass. There can see the yellow lavender (as the locals call it) ornamental flowers growing, which are controlled by each beetle and wasp together in carrying out daily activities.

I saw a group of Scoliid wasps controlling each petal simultaneously, uniquely here they work together, unlike those seen in urban plants, they work independently.

In the same sense here, each flower bud has a figure of them being cool on a mission to suck flower nectar. They are very diligent in supplying flower nectar for their bodies, can't say how many hours they are on the petals, it seems they come and go, it seems that this work is very organized and purposeful in an entry. While here, no other insect species are seen, only they dominate every area of ​​the flower.

Seeing this very sporty situation, there was an intention in my heart, to capture this moment in several photo frames, then I will convey in this post, so that you too can witness this phenomenon in an activity.

🐝	Here are some of their activities in a location in a small Aceh forest

West corner

Each individual looks for his own location in each selected petal, he is very enthusiastic in that activity. This can be seen in his perseverance in trying to get a nectar in the thick petals.

Searching continuously to another point, when the starting point looks empty, it continues to be done with the same activity on every landing.

Sometimes looking for another point but finding the next point in one petal, it happens that the petals look a lot.

East Corner

Likewise with other conditions, also seen the same activity, this wasp seen, is the same species in one location, which is looking for or detecting the presence of flower nectar.

My gaze turned to the other side, there were also other wasps doing the same thing in every location, they kept looking for something until they were found.

Nevering feel bored, in seeking and finding everything that is aimed at in every mission, but the search will always be found in a landing.

North Corner

When the sun is hot, or when the heat affects the flowers, then one by one they move to other plants. They will look for flower locations that have not been exposed to the hot sun

Over time, as the heat of the sun reaches every part of the flower's body, they automatically slowly disappear, so don't be surprised if they are in a petal looking very aggressive or very busy, maybe this is because of trying to avoid the sun.

South Corner

However, as other people still maintain hot conditions, they continue to enjoy nectar as they please, here we can see the differences between each other even though they are still in one species or one ordo.

As long as this plant is here then, the life of flying insect species will still survive, and we can still find it here, and vice versa will also happen like that, in space and time.

The time is 12.00 WIB, marked by the increasingly scorching heat in a shady location filled with all kinds of green plants and others, the atmosphere of the plants is also more lively when you hear birds chirping and busy with their nests. Every now and then there was a rustling sound behind the small forest bushes, indicating that there were other occupants of a different species.
