Sawfly Arge cyanocrocea

I get these sawflies in my garden every year. There is usually just a lone wasp to be found at any one time. It is usually resting on a leaf and I fail to get a worthwhile image before it flies away.

This time, a very tolerant individual had a long feeding session and seemed not bothered by my presence. I believe this species feeds on bramble.

Thanks, Brian.

I can't work out what that pale blue substance on the left side of the neck region is.
