The size of wasps/? is what is throwing me off. Our open faced barn is home for many paper wasps and has been for years. They are near the same size as red wasps. Both the paper wasps and red wasps are not aggressive when you walk near them. I have never been stung by either.
However, the ones in the pictures are half that size at most. They are aggressive and don't want you near them. The nest was in a tree that our grandchildren play under - also beside the front steps to the deck that leads to our front door. If they had been out away from that area, I would have left them alone.
