Male trying to mate...

That's not yet done! In fact, it's quite rare for most Eumenine females to mate more than once, and most do this by emerging at their natal nests, where males wait for them.
If this female really doesn't want, the male will sooner or later let her alone and fly away.
These small Eumeninae are most likely members of the Stenodynerus genus.
