When hornets are around, usually September, best let them carve out a bit of your meat and fly it back to their nest, rather than you wave your arms about only to get badly stung.
Up in the mountains of Massouri is a great hornets nest of several hundred thousand. Being so high and dangerously out of reach except to climbers who have the sense to keep clear, our hornets have gotten away with being exterminated for decades. Unlike flies, they are clean. They frequent our natural springs to drink. I ignore them, they don't bother me. But they sure bother others. Like a really big man who by the look of him wouldn't be upset at anything, running away in panic being persued by angry hornets after he flayed his water drum at them.
