Is this Scolia bicincta? Would be new for New York, so I want to confirm the ID.

Thanks. I think you're right
Thanks. I think you're right on the money with those 2 suggestions. They look so similar, I guess I'll leave this here and look forward to some more input. Either species would be new in NY in BG. And I couldn't get a better shot before it flew off.
