Hi
Hope someone can help me, I have just found this in the shed it is over 1" long. I think it could be a Hornet of some kind,
Thanks

Yes it is
Sheps, thanks for the quick reply.
Lucky you, Joybell...though some may disagree
Keep an eye on the shed as it may be looking for somewhere to nest or it may have just been just collecting wood to build a nest in another location.
Sheps...
It is now flying around the garden and out of my way.
Such amazing creatures

Fortunately for us hornets are relatively peaceful next to other members of the wasp family
We had a hornets nest in our garage a couple of years ago, they never bothered us, This year we are lucky to have bees nesting near our patio doors!
I found this in my bathroom in May, Gedling, Nottingham
