@Paul4K can you please remove the 3rd (last) photo & upload it separately as it is a different wasp to the 1st & 2nd photos. The first two photos has black across mid-thorax, ann orange head, and a thin waist. The third photo has a solid orange thorax, a black head, and a thicker waist😊

@Paul4K I did see you uploaded the last photo as another sighting, but I can’t verify this sighting until the photo with the green background which is of a different wasp has been removed☹️
