I'm pretty sure this is a pelecinid wasp, but just wanted to confirm.
I see these wasps are common around Michigan, but I've just never seen one before. The picture I uploaded is more focused in on the wasp so I used this one, but I have another picture that shows the ovipositor is much larger than I have seen in other pictures of this type of wasp. Are the ovipositors longer with the female?
