Not sure about this one, doesn't look like a typical eumenine, and the behaviour is unusual for that group. Crabroninae is an alternative.

Kim, Happy to be corrected. I based my identification on Potter wasp (Vespidae, Eumeninae) Eumeninae sp. (subfamily) (Unidentified Potter wasp) on 8 Feb 2016 but could be that this identification is incorrect also.
