Remains of hornet's nest on the trail

we had a brief interlude in the storm and took a hike. I didn't dare take my camera since the rains have been so torrential but had to pull out my phone when I saw this.
Thanks so much for all your kind comments and favs on my bridge series.

A wonderful work of art & construction!

I really hate these insects, but you have to admire their construction skills.

Glad these are the remains and not active!! What great textures! And congrats on both the arch shots making PP! They are wonderful!

Astonishing and dramatic. Such a work of art. Glad you carried your phone!

[Richard Sayer]

It's certainly bad weather when it even makes hornets homeless! Interesting to see this... hope the weather abates soon.

Isn't it amazing how they do such intricate work? This looks like it was a pretty good sized nest - glad you had the phone with you.

[Anita Campbell]

Glad you didn't run into this when it was full of hornets. Their nest looks like a honeycomb.

[Marnie]

Yikes, think of all those hornets that won't bother anyone. That must've been a huge nest with such intricate construction. Well spotted Jane.

What a find -- and that green pop in the middle adds such a nice spot of color.

[Stephanie Swift]

Great find and wonderful textures.

[Rachel]

This is a huge nest. Glad the hornets weren't around.
