Euodynerus
A specific ID of this male will be somewhat more tricky. I think this is either E. auranus or E. castigatus castigatus, but color of the apex of the flagellum is difficult to assess from these angles; advice by Dr Buck is badly needed. Very interesting anyway.

 
I've added
Another shot that shows the end of the antennae -- is the yellow visible there enough to say castigatus?
