Thanks for the info John.
Mark- Baked during the dry season and now steamed during the wet ;)
Love that last shot, dragging it down into the burrow. Wonderful series Vinny. Thank you for sharing :)
Well done Vinny. I reckon you must be well cooked by now in that area.
Very nice series.
This is a thread-waisted wasp (or digger wasp) in the family Sphecidae.
