Potter Wasp nest

Eumenes fraternus

Description:

Could these be Potter wasp or mud-nesting wasp nests? They look similar. But these are real small. Maybe about 1/2 - 3/4 inch each. Thanks for your help. I have very unusual creatures and things in my meadow. Yes, confirmed through photos potter wasp nests -(Also called Mason wasp)

Habitat:

Meadow in the Poconos
