There is a huge ground bee / wasp nest in my neighbor\'s yard. It stretches over 20ft in one direction, at least half that in the other. Today it is about 60 degrees out and dry, and they are fairly active.

Can anybody identify these from the photos? May main concern is that they sting - my son is allergic to bee and wasp stings. I can try to get better pictures if there\'s any uncertainty.

Thanks,

Paddy
