Скачать или смотреть Peppervine attracts many Wasps

A lot of different wasps visit a large patch of blooming Peppervine (Nekemias arborea) growing along a trail leading to Buffalo Bayou in Memorial Park, Houston, TX, USA. In order of appearance in the video are an Umbrella Paper Wasp (Polistes sp., subgenus Fuscopolistes), a Brown-legged Grass-carrying Wasp (Isodontia auripes), a Sand-loving Wasp (Tachytes sp.), a Thread-waisted Wasp (probably Palmodes dimidiatus), and a male Banded Flower Wasp (Myzinum maculatum).

There was also a Bee Assassin bug (Apiomerus spissipes) hanging out in the Peppervine, hoping to grab a Bee (or a Wasp?), I assume.
