Nice one, Dave. Gotta love that PLM soft bpkeh even at narrow apertures. These hornets are our friends since they eat a lot of flies and such. Usually do not sting unless provoked. - Jack

Once in my life I have seen a hornet and that was about 60 years ago in London of all places, I gave way.

You're braver than I am. I wouldn't get that close.

It's especially impressive with that audience. The viewer wonders, is there about to be a confrontation?

Well, image is cropped a little. I wasn't as close as it looks.
