I was so disappointed when we found it again... seems that someone (RichardM?!?!) decided to blow the crap out of it with a shotgun. It was hanging in shreds, not very pretty! <br /><br />BTW... welcome to my blog.

First time to pass by your blog, and ...Hi, Lady R:<br /><br />First time to pass by your blog, and I really like your layout. One thing about the nest - it's a hornet's nest, not wasps or bees. Be very careful if you go back for it! If it's pretty cold weather you should be all right.<br /><br />Keep the shiny side up!<br /><br />JeffPapaJeffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15265877721872134683noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1058662679644806189.post-50316511400905703932011-11-22T05:55:30.316-06:002011-11-22T05:55:30.316-06:00Brady...

(Like a thin piece of plastic was going to save me from a agitated swarm!) Besides, I told Harley it would be our luck, that we would get the giant nest home just to find out our neighborhood bees would be happy to hangout in the leftover's of some other buzzer's condo. We are going to go back there this weekend though and see if we can get it... for real. It's an awesome prize!<br /><br />Richard M... sounds reminiscent of kicking over ant hills. Buwahahahaha! I think this one was dormant... we'll see. Shotgun, huh? Hmmmmmm.<br /><br />Bobskoot... Red! I have red! Gonna hit it with a machete though, not a ball bat. I want my first swing (or Harley's) to count! lol!<br /><br />KT... It was huge! The entry hole was about eye level, so we'd be able to reach it with no problem. We just want to make sure the nest has served it's purpose and is dormant. We plan to go back up this weekend to get it... if someone hasn't beaten us to it. I'll be sure and post about it if we're successful. It's totally the coolest thing!Lady R (Di)https://www.blogger.com/profile/08253802136989789026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1058662679644806189.post-14919317995030877642011-11-21T14:23:14.951-06:002011-11-21T14:23:14.951-06:00I have never seen one so huge and actually in natu...I have never seen one so huge and actually in nature and not on a roof someplace. It looks like its pretty low to the ground too.

By the way, I hate bees, their honey is delicious,but I was stung this summer and it reminded me of how unpleasant they can be in person.<br /><br />Brady <br />Behind Bars - Motorcycles and LifeAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03424120592303852860noreply@blogger.com
