While in the shop this morning cleaning rust off tobacco knives with a drill mounted wire brush, a Cicada Killer Wasp kept buzzing all around me. I assumed I had set something over its hole and returned everything I could remember moving back to its original spot. I didn't notice a hole while doing this, but it seemed to satisfy the wasp, which then went on its merry way. A little while later it returned with a Cicada and carried it down a hole under a table. I noticed a similar hole in a different location and wondered if it had two holes. A while later a black wasp almost as big as the Cicada Killer came in carrying a Katydid, went in the other hole and pulled the katydid down behind it. I'm thinking this could count as a bird post since both wasps were nearly as big as hummingbirds.
