They're paper wasps. Not as aggressive as other species. You can get pretty close to them. I've shot 2:1 macros about about 70mm away from their nest before and they didn't attack. Mind you, I was moving very slowly and steadily, keeping an eye on their behavior very closely. It is fascinating being able to see their growth from egg to larva to wasp. Great captures.
