Sabre wasp laying eggs
Hi WTB,
I love your site and use it all the time; I thought I’d share with you this photo I took of a female Sabre wasp laying her eggs in a tree stump in my back yard. Enjoy!

Hi Jenn,
We were not familiar with the common name Sabre Wasp with regards to the Giant Ichneumon, Megarhyssa atrata. Thanks for enlightening us about this fitting name.
