That is a dynamic and fine looking wasp - highlighted beautifully against the dark vegetation. Awesome shot. Perhaps a potter wasp? Posted 4 years ago, modified 4 years ago

  Thanks For the compliment, and yes it's a potter wasp but I have a doubt about this, it is European potter wasp? or Great potter wasp ? Posted 4 years ago, modified 4 years ago

Hi, I removed the species identification, as it is not Delta sp. It is Phimenes sp., most probably Phimenes flavopictus. Posted 2 years ago
