Hi All

Came across this wasp near the reservoir. Low grass and flowers, near mountain sheep pasture.
290m above sea level.

Can someone ID this for me please?

Thanks, Gareth

Ectemnius sp., Crabronidae, I think.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Is it possible to narrow this down to a species by photographs?
I have a lot more photos.

Thanks, Gareth

Yes Gareth, more photos could help - especially the back (colour and structure) and the legs (colour and spines).
