This very large insect which I believe is a Giant Asian hornet landed on my dad's hummingbird feeder. Shortly after a paper wasp also landed there. The hornet attacked the wasp biting it in half and dropping it to the ground.

Metropolis - I am from Ballard County Kentucky - now So California.
I wish I could see its back. It could be a Southern yellow jacket queen, which is larger and more orange than yellow. I sent images to my local agricultural extension agent and he identified mine as a Southern yellow jacket queen.
