May have been cold enough to get rid of them for this year, but there is a nest with a queen around somewhere. I have no idea of the range that they travel from the nest, but I will be looking this winter while all of the leaves are off. Oaks are just now getting bare. A lot fell last week, the the leaves seemed to hang on late this year, even with some pretty big frosts. miles


Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.
