Amazing details and sharpness!
Maybe try to do a little noise reduction on the green section.

Great clearity and details
I think it's the kind of wasp that lays eggs in spiders.
They stun the spiders first and injects eggs in the spider's body,
the larvy hatch out and they eat the spider from inside out while the spider is STILL alive and not able to move. To make it even more gruesome; they don't eat the vital organs, so the spider is kept alive as long as possible...
A horrific painful and slow death!
Nice shot + 10

Thanks for the gruesome addition. I couldn't identify this wasp, but it's similar to other wasps that prey on spiders. The blue mud dauber has a build that is not too far off from this one, though it's larger and, well, blue. Interestingly, it prefers black widows and stuffs its nest with them so the larva have fresh spider to chew on as they grow.
