pulsewidth@lemmy.world 4 days agoMaybe some kind of spider wasp aka tarantula hawk. They’re much bigger and IMO very pretty. Often attract some observers if they’re dragging away a big spider they’ve caught near a school or house. I’ve seen the orange and black common one most often, they’re loud and and can give you a shock if they fly past your head. Cheers www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/biosecurity/…/spider-wasp

I think this (Horse’s Paper Wasp) might be the guy. You could see them at a distance quite easily. They were fairly large. I realized only after your lovely post that it was a big and vague ask. Either way, bugs are wonderful and thanks for the share. Cheers!
