Hornets

Hornets are large insects which catch others - here is one which caught a bumblebee, and flew along with it before hanging by one leg from a branch to feed.

Hambrook Pack Bridge

Follow the footpath around the Great Western Brewery and across a field, and you arrive at a 17th century pack bridge crossing the brook. You can walk over it, and then follow the brook to the Frome Valley Walkway, or follow other footpaths. There are also a number of nature mats put out along the path for animal shelter. The local rabbits like them - they leave messages on top of a number of them! But under one a common shrew was found sheltering.
