Potter Wasp (two photos)
Genus Eumenes

My old heart skips a beat when I see a stunning
potter wasp like this. I only wish I could convince
people how beautiful wasps can be. This one was in
Big Cottonwood Canyon, Salt Lake County, UT

Black and yellow Eumenes potter wasp in Red Butte Garden,
Salt Lake City, Utah. There is a short Youtube video (by
Legend 813a) that shows a Eumenes wasp, similar in shape to this
one, building a mud nest. Worth watching. © Carol Davis 9-4-2012
