Nice find!
I’m sure someone could use it.

Quick story:
I brought one home a few years ago, early winter. to add some decor to one of my bear mounts. I brought it in the house and about a hour later the bees started pouring out of it :yike:

that would suck!!  I’m pretty sure it’s dead, we have bees all over our elk meat today and the nest is quiet!

A piñata is a container, often made of papier-mâché, pottery, or cloth, that is decorated, filled with candy, :chuckle: :chuckle:

That’s a wasp nest. Not bees. Minor discrepancy but worth noting.

Bald Face Hornet...what we call them around here. Don't get stung by one of those... I've watched these bad boys fly in to a swarm of yellow jackets , grab one of them , pinch it's head off, and then fly away with the body.
Thanks for all for your past support...We officially pulled the plug and have retired from the Biz. Still dabble a little in real estate.
