Vespa-Crabro-European-Hornet-2 * Same hornet but from a different angle - particularly good view of the brown wing front which is another identifier of a hornet rather than a wasp * 642 x 556 * (146KB)
These are pictures of Vespa Crabro - the European Hornet - much bigger than ordinary wasps and usually noisier too.
