Thanks in advance. The photo was taken today in Hastings, MN. I apologize that there's only one photo of it available and it really shows no scale - lovely hourglass shape with a yellow spot and subtle yellow stripe. She says that her yard is "covered" with them (which may be an exaggeration). She did not mention whether or not they were causing any sort of damage, so I assume that they were not.
