Friendly Bees and Ground Hornets

The bumble bees are just peacefully checking out the flowers.

The ground hornets in the video also seem pretty peaceful, but I'm told they'll only get bigger and less friendly. I'm also told I have to kill them. Much as I'd rather live and let live, since they are outside, I suppose they do pose a serious and potentially painful threat, especially to anyone who wanders by unawares.



Watch them fly in and out like a Roman candle! Eek. They weren't the least bit interested in me, though.

Hopefully the foaming spray I just coated the nest with is doing the trick.
