Captured this potter wasp on my garden sedum. Sharing with today’s Macro Monday challenge.
Potter Wasp is the common name for a group of caterpillar-hunting wasps known for their pot-shaped mud nests built by some species. Potter wasps are also known as Mason wasps.
Potter wasps are found throughout the northern hemisphere, mainly in temperate regions. There are about 270 species in the United States and Canada and about 3000 species worldwide.

Great photo and glad the wasp did not get annoyed as you photographed it.
Thanks, I was careful and I don’t think he would have came after me. I move slowly around the garden with the camera, just in case.
Sorry, my mistake. Below is the real comment.
We have wasps in other colors. I haven’t seen a wasp in black yet.
We have many other wasps here as well.
Great quiz. I have three wrong answers. I am very “attractive” to mosquitoes.
