Yellow jackets get in soda cans and end up stinging when you take a drink. They make ground nests here. As do bumble bees. Hornets hurt way worse to me. They feel like being thumped in the arm or wherever you are being stung at when they get you. I've heard stories of guys shooting the hornets nest down from 75-100 yards away and the hornets know which direction you shot from and still get you. Not sure if it's true but I've heard it several times.
Late spring through summer we get the solid red tanager birds. They will grab a bee or wasp and smash it against something to kill it then eat it. I have watched them totally desomate an entire red wasp nest. They are my favorite bird for sure. Wish I could hatch them out!!
