Unknown Mud Wasp - Pachodynerus erynnis - Female
zip code 32927, Brevard County, Florida, USA
October 12, 2018
Wasp has been 'working' on top of my tripod (outside, under roof) for several weeks. Her first steps were to line 'holes' with mud. She returned at odd times later (last on 10/12/2018) to seal the holes. I have not disturbed the work, so cannot ID prey, if any.

Pachodynerus erynnis
I'm not a wasp guy, but it doesn't worry me to agree -- the images are essentially identical, Thanks very much for the ID.
