I have seen this species in flight several times over the years but never saw it land until today. Quick to fly away and I lucked out with a cell phone pic. It has a pretty intimidating look in flight with the white striping on ends of legs. I had figured it was a wasp of some kind. Thanks as always for help with ID.
