I'm assuming this is a native wasp, and after much net serching, I've been unable to ID it. Apparently there are over 2000 native wasp in Australia. I came upon a nest of these in a hollow of a tree at Mt Cooth-tha on the Greenhood St walk. If anyone recognises this wasp, feel free to let me know.
PS I've discoverd this to be a potter wasp, one of 30 in the species

Now this is a cool macro - I would be too hesitant to get this close a wasp bite is no fun.
