Does the great black wasp sting?

Like any other wasp, the Great Black Wasp (sphenx pennsylvanica) is equipped with a stinger. Do not confuse the Great Black Wasp with other black wasps. The Great Black Wasp is a solitary wasp, consequently, it does not build "community" nests similar to other wasp species and does not swarm. If you are experiencing swarming black wasps, then these are not the Great Black. Wasps are typically fairly aggressive, however the Great Black Wasp is not as aggressive as other species and generally will not bother you unless provoked (accidentally stepped on or otherwise agitated). However, this is a large powerful insect with an extremely painful sting, therefore caution is advised. The Great Black Wasp is easy to identify from other stinging insects; these wasps fly with their legs trailing behind them while most other types of bees and wasps will tuck their legs toward their body as they fly. The Great Black Wasp is also considerably larger than other wasp species with a separate thorax and abdomen.

Large black wasp black wings sit away from body and in sun light there is a blue color to the wings what is it?

It's a black flower wasp - native to Australia! It's a non-aggressive native wasp, that keeps grubs and destructive insects in lawns and gardens under control. The females are big and powerful and can dig holes into the ground to lay their lavae. The males can be seen pollenating wild flowers low to the ground. They are a beautiful insect and don't need to be erradicated as they aren't a pest or aggressive or dangerous to humans. They are unusally shaped - a bit like a massive fly (like a march fly) mixed with a dragon fly and a butterfly. They have elongated black bodies, slightly hairy dark (mostly black) legs, and stunning bright irridescent cobalt blue wings that make them look like something from out of this world!
