User's notes
Quite small, as you can see from the mortar between bricks.
It flew away quick after this shot, so no other angles.
Only one at time of shot, but had seen earlier, a few others of similar size, which may be same or different, flying nearby for a short time!
I assume this is some type of potter / mud dauper? It looked to be digging into the mortar.
The one of the nest - not sure if it for the same wasp - but it was nearby the wasp.
