Re: Great Black Wasp
Anyone know what these are? The yellow ones are huge! They came last year... I am not joking one must have been 6" from head to tail... the blacker ones were here this year, smaller, up to about 3". They all drilled holes in trees with that long black thing (not stingers thank f!). Some of them leave their back ends behind... or just die after they've laid eggs. Weird!

This is the hornets nest we have in the garden. Fortunately it is now empty of hornets
It is the size of a football.
