This is NOT
a Scolia dubia as the other two images are. This looks more like Sphex nudus. You may have accidentally attached the wrong image or this wasp snuck into the photo op when you weren't looking. You should detach this image from the other two and make a new ID request to confirm this one. And welcome to BugGuide!
