Hey Kimkiu It seems like you found the ID already. I could not find its ID but I suspect maybe Auplopus. http://www.flickr.com/photos/32977858@N02/5366326162 . Here is your exact wasp with its orange legs, orange antennae with black tips and no name. Wow!!! http://www.flickr.com/photos/22953763@N02/6734030727 You've got to follow Kristi, she takes awesome pics of bugs that are local to you.
