Unknown reddish wasp - Tachypompilus ferrugineus

Unknown reddish wasp - Tachypompilus ferrugineus
Alexander, Buncombe County, North Carolina, USA
August 25, 2021
I have seen this reddish wasp several times on weedy Ampelopsis vines growing on a large holly but close to the ground. Mid afternoon around 3:30. It looks a little like a Sphex but its head seems smaller
