i think they are quite cool they dont buzz around and annoy you like wasps.

however if they want to sting you they dont land on you first then fly straight at you with there stinger out and land it straight into you

I've never seen anything like that in this country. Did it stay there and wait for you to get your camera or were you already taking pictures of wood chippings?
