Another reason why I love your country. In late summer, when the wasps have nothing left to do in their nests, they become a real nuisance. When you’re sitting outside having coffee or a barbecue, they show up right away, buzzing around the table and landing on the plates. And you have to be incredibly careful they haven't crawled into your beer or Coke bottle before you put it to your lips.

But the four here were far too busy; I could get really close with my lens without bothering them at all.

I don't think they're that bad. They don't sting without a reason. I've only been stung by a wasp once. It really depends on where they get you. Getting stung in the mouth or throat is nasty and dangerous.
Otherwise, it hurts quite a bit at first, but if you get the venom out and cool the area immediately, it's bearable.

Have not got these in my country but I believe the sting is bad, pain! Hope you got the pic unharmed?
