Great Golden Digger Wasp from Maine



Slim pickings at this time of year. However, I am gradually going through my unidentified pix from the last 2 years and throwing some in to BugGuide for identification. We vacationed in Maine last August, and I saw this large wasp actively searching for prey around a little hole in the sand on a trail around the lake at Ferry Beach State Park, Old Orchard Beach. I consider Maine pix to be acceptable for a blog on New Brunswick insects - it's close enough. This wasp is a Great Golden Digger Wasp (SPHECIDAE Sphex ichnumoneus). I watched it for about 30 minutes, but couldn't get any great pix as it would not stay still.

Today, while I was at work, my sister stole my iPad and
tested to see if it can survive a forty foot drop, just so she can
be a youtube sensation. My iPad is now destroyed and she has 83 views.
I know this is entirely off topic but I had to share it with someone!
