It appears we have PISI nesting here again this year after a few year's hiatus. We see them at the feeder every now and then,

Ovipositor was 4 inches plus long and I believe nitida the only Giant Swallowtail with a black abdomen. Amazing creature. I'm open to correction by wasp experts as this is far out of my field.

Very late arrival, In past years they nested here.
