    Bees will warn you if you get too close, and if they run into you will fly off on their own or otherwise avoid you.

    I used to work near a mall with a fountain where one edge of it would always have water splashing up. Place near there had honeybees. In the dry summers there would always be bees chilling out and enjoying the cold fountain water on the ledge, usually next to human workers also on lunch.

    Wasps intentionally get in your face and will sting you because you had the gall to exist in their flight path.

      The wasps local to me will literally chase people, it’s nuts. You can practically hear them saying “Come at be bro! Wait come back here I wasn’t finished with you”. I can’t even have picnics certain times of the year because of them, because instead of just making a run for the food like other bugs they like to chase you away first. I once had to finish my little caesars in the car because a wasp was trying to get between me and my pie in the park. I was literally watching the fucker throw it’s body into my windshield repeatedly as I continued eating in safety, and it didn’t stop until I drove away. Psychotic man. I don’t mess with wasps. Our bees are awesome though.
