A HORNETS NEST
A Hornets Nest in a tree - I have deliberately turned it on its side so you can get the full effect - the entrance to the nest is at the base of the narrower side on the right - the exit is at the top of the wider side on the left - I spent several minutes watching them go in and out - fascinating !!! The correct orientation is with the wider end of the nest at the top. You will notice the entrance is larger so they can fly in presumably and the exit is quite narrow , just a small round hole for one at a time.
