A bald-faced hornet clears a leaf and becomes exposed to an alert Cape May warbler.
Evasive manuever by hornet begins with an upward turn. He was below twig, now he is above it.
The Cape May warbler has jumped upward, still eyeing the backward-flying bald-faced hornet.
The hornet is back further still, and banked hard. Hornet's feet are toward viewer.
The hornet is receding into the distance as the warbler strains to see it. Another photo not posted shows the bee even further away.
