 Yes. It looks like a Crabro species or something close (Digger wasps; Crabronidae).

 Hello,

I don't understand on this photo how the fore femora are formed. What is this grey thing?

 Thank you for your replies.
After the email of Jan, I had identified the wasp as crabro scutellatus because the abdomen is entirely black (no yellow area). Is it possible?

Mariki

 Do you mean abdomen or mesonotum? I can clearly see yellow markings on the abdomen...
