Cuban Green Woodpecker (Xiphidiopicus percussus)Observer
kbakkegardDescription
Sleeping. Telephone pole that it had earlier pecked out a nice hole, not large enough to go into, but enough to hide the head and sleep. We also saw it here 3 days earlier.

Four-toothed Mason Wasp (Monobia quadridens)Observer
kbakkegardDescription
I watched for approx 15 to 20 min as this wasp first opened up the curled leaf/silk hideaway in an oak to finally extract this caterpillar. Really neat! You could hear the crunching (which is why I noticed). At first, could not figure out why a wasp would be taking a leaf off an oak, but eventually saw the rolled/silken leaf and figured it found a caterpillar. Wasp worked hard for that caterpillar!

Stumped my invert class. We are currently thinking a larvae of something. Beetle was our initial reaction due to the sclaratized head. However, it is missing 6 defined legs. Figured we’d throw it out to the inat experts to see if y’all had any ideas
