Single blue-green individual observed on cigar plant. I suspect that this is Halictinae, but because I am unsure, I have left the identification at the family level until someone corrects it. Overcast, breezy, 83F.

October 10 was the fall bioblitz at Oliver Nature Park, and I even had the chance to go out and get some observations! :)
It was a blast -- 66 folks (children and adults) showed up, and I think everyone had a good time. Yippee, nature! :)

Found this wasp out this morning checking out mist flower in the misty rain. I think it might be an ichneumon type. It was small about 1.5 cm.
have more pictures if need a certain feature but was hard to get as it crawled around and under the plants.

On coneflower. Might be Sastra petulca, which I photographed nearby in early June, but iNat. didn't show this species as a possibility.

Wasp gathering pollen from prickly ash tree. I'm wondering if this wasp is a threat to the giant swallowtail larvae on this tree as well.
