Yep, surprisingly some of the biggest like the “Cicada Killer” and Bald Faced Hornets (as long as you’re not messing with their nest) are very chill around humans as long as you don’t mess with them. Yellowjackets OTOH can get fucked. Fearless and they’ll chase you in numbers if you even just step by the nest or go by it with a mower.
Iirc even the tarantula hawk is very chill and reluctant to sting people. I remember a video by coyote Peterson got stung on purpose and really had to annoy the wasp to get stung.
