A large European Wasp nest has started to wash out of an embankment on the side of the Ashbrook Fire Trail. The nest is on the lefthand side of the trail when walking away from Hanging Rock carpark. The nest was very active, with multiple openings. The grey coloured nest can be seen at the top of each image.
