DSC_0759 insect lg.crop

would any of the 365 community know what this insect might be. I didnt realise it was there on several of the photos I took today, until it moved. This one seems to show it best.

Not sure what it is but nicely captured

[Diana]

Fabulous shot, a new to me insect.

[mittens (Marilyn)]

Beautiful shot.

[Mags]

How wonderful!

[Milanie]

No idea - those antenna are about as long as his body. Neat catch

[Beryl Lloyd]

No idea , but a super shot !

According to my Seek app it is an ichneumonid wasp… my first thought was a wasp of some sort with the shape.

[tony gig]

Fabulous...

[Babs]

Great shot. I love how there is always someone on 365 who can identify insects or flowers etc for us. Well done KV @kvphoto

Nice capture of the flower and insect. It's a female because that long "filament" at its rear end is an ovipositor (according to Wikipedia).

[Valerie Chesney]

Such a beauty & wonderful someone named it.

@kvphoto thank you for your comment and yes, I believe your are correct after a google search and the large thin tail is not a stinger but an ovipositor. (new to me),

@randystreat thank you for your comment and yes after @kvphoto comment I did a google search and he is right it is an ichneumonid wasp. (new to me).

A great capture! And fun to have engaged us in identifying this insect. (I'm in the "no idea" camp, so thank you to KV @kvphoto and Kathy @randystreat)
