Any ideas?
Sitting on some grass, between grasses.
Is it likely to be a cocoon of some sort, for maybe a butterfly of some type?
It's maybe 1 week old
Thanks in advance
Or More likely to be some type of young wasps nest?
It's small, maybe 3cm long & 2cm wide.
(It is not a feed / water station, but, was forced to select one)
