This is a Crabronidae Wasp (Family Crabronidae). Due to the quality of the images, I’m hesitant to take this through to Species-level instead of leaving it at Family-level. However, the antennae shape & scapes; head & eyes shape; thorax & abdomen markings and placement; are all good indicators that this is Ammatomus icarioides & geographic location is a good fit.
