Tarantula hawk (pepsis formosa)

Hi, insects lovers..
A few days ago I did a search for several types of insects so that I could display them in my posts in this community, in the search I did I found something unique, and I rarely find it.

The insect that I found was black in color, after I observed this insect was a type of bee, if I'm not mistaken the bee that preys on the tarantula or what is often called the tarantula hawk.

A tarantula is a spider that has a large body and has a lot of hair on its body, but in our discussion this time it is not about spiders but predators of spiders or tarantulas.

Tarantula hawks are very different in appearance from wasps in general, tarantulas have a dark black color and a larger body than other types of wasps, usually they hunt tarantulas as a food source.
