Digger Wasp (3/4)

Hymenoptera: Sphecidae

Podalonia tydei  

The Digger Wasp blocks the entrance to the burrow with a seed capsule and pulls three tiny (to us, not her) twigs across which she also tries to push into the hole.

Eventually, she decides against these twigs and moves them away, finishing the concealment of the burrow by covering it with sand only, sprayed from both near and several centimetres away.
