>During daytime I found I could stand right in front of colonies inhabiting hollow trees etc. and not ever be apparently noticed by the bees.
Not my experience in Tanzania where I walked over to an Acacia tree with log hives hanging in it. The bees 'noticed' me at 30 yards and I beat a hasty retreat to our vehicle some 200 yards away - they followed all the way.
Best wishes
