Saw this little feller flying around today toting around a grasshopper. Name that wasp!



Update: it is a golden reined digger wasp

Its a native wasp that was once worshipped by the Odawa tribe. They believed its stinger was a response from the gods.

I don't know, but if it stings you, you will get COVID.

That kind of looks like a Texas cicada killer but I think their stingers have yellow also.

I believe that's one of them Lutheran Wasps.

Stay away from that shite. Hardly better than the African Methodist Episcopalian variation.

It’s carrying of a grasshopper that’s at least as big as it is. Pretty obvious that it is a Badassius Stingus Hurtlikehellius.
