alixdentremontDescription
Two bobcats were behind the building where I store my boat. I only saw one at first, then it started walking straight towards me. I jumped in the truck to be able to use it to stabilize my camera since the lighting was poor as the sun was setting. After the first turned around, the second appeared. Eventually, both quietly headed into the woods.

lucavoscortDescription
Female. S. brachygaster? Katepisternum pollinose (pic 1 & 2), Tarsi all dark (pic 3). Firth tergum looks broader than long (pic 4) but does not look like S. flavimana (postpronotum dark, femur unicolored (pic 1 & 2)).
Both S. flavomaculata and brachygaster are supposed to have an apicomedial cleft on T5, I can see/find one (pic 4). Vertex pile long (pic 5), T2 broad, mesonotum pollinose (pic 6), femur unicolored - S. brachygaster? Using Coovert & Thompson 1977.
