Today these little ones were found all over the nest. I got these pictures in the evening, but there were many more out during the day. They look like parasitoid wasps, only much smaller than the others. I'm happy though, this means more biodiversity in my yard. Also, I have another one just like it that mason bees have started to visit. They seem to be too close and it is easy access for the wasps. This may mean that more spacing betweem holes is better for the bees.
