Anyone know what kind of digging bee or wasp this is?

At first I thought the big deep hole was an armadillo's handywork.

I had bent over and packed most of the sand back in the hole, started to walk away then 'IT' appeared. Was amazed to see a HUGE insect digging furiouosly in the sand to right what damage I had done.

Most importantly, is this bug Good or Bad?

Thanks,
