I cut some turkey sign while scouting today and took off on foot to try to unravel where they were coming and going when I came upon a huge yellow jackets nest that a black bear had destroyed and eaten. There was still some paper left up on the side of the oak tree that the nest was attached to. This thing was about 2 feet above the ground and extended down into the ground another 2'! The bear excavated a huge hole to get to all the larva in the nest. This was one of the largest nests I have seen. You get to see some pretty interesting things knocking around in the woods!
