Bee Wolf wasp (Philanthus)

A lovely shot by Barry, showing the shape and colours of this beautiful wasp. Despite the name of bee wolf, it is indeed a wasp, not a bee. The name comes from its habit of preying on bees (and sometimes other wasps) which it captures to provision its larder for its larvae.
