 Very big wasp, the biggest I've seen, 20mm long or more. But it looks like a common Vespula germanica. I suppose it is a qeen starting a new colony?

I can no longer send private messages (and maybe not receive?), even though my inbox and outbox are not yet full. I write, click "send" and they disappear and never show up in the outbox.
