Megarhyssa sp. - Megarhyssa macrurus - female

Megarhyssa sp. - Megarhyssa macrurus - Female
Montreal (downtown), Quebec, Canada
August 30, 2004
I was lucky enough to find a tree that had about 4 very nice specimens flying around. They were very approachable, and once in the act of ovipositing they would not move at all. Made for a good photo opportunity.
