Unidentifiedunidentified hornet?
I finally snapped a picture of one of these guys. Maybe they do only have 2 wings. I was wondering if they are nest builders or live in the ground, as I have yet to find their home. Hope this helps!
Thanks,
Brittney from NC
Hi Brittney,
The last few Cicada Killer images we have gotten were from dead insects, so we are very happy to see your specimen flying. They build underground nests stocked with paralyzed cicadas for the young to eat.
