A friend of mine here in rural WA was on his property building a chicken coop yesterday when he caught something in the corner of his eye. If was big enough that he thought it was a small bird flying by. Next thing he knows, a murder hornet is staring him down right in front of his face. He said it had to be about 3 inches long and was a foot in front of his head. Freaked out, he swatted it with his ball cap while he got off his knees. That just pissed it off and he ran towards the house, with the thing chasing him the whole way. He got inside and peeked out the window to find it outside the door for what seemed about 10 minutes until it finally went away. The chicken coop project is on hold until further notice lol.

Might have simply been a friendly humming bird - and swatting at it made it more playful. Some of ours will come in close and even follow us - was the fellow wearing a brightly colored shirt or hat?

Pictures of that murderer? Or, I'm calling that a hummer event.

My cousin and her husband lived in Japan for several years when he was AD Navy. She said they got a murder hornet in the apartment they lived in and she killed it and flushed down the toilet of their daughters bathroom. She said their two daughters refused to use that toilet for several months afterwards.

Another BS story from the media. Just look up death statistics from Asian hornet stings per year in country like Japan, infinitesimal.
